Christmas gift!

Well, I had a little interruption in my tutorial. One of my daughter's classes for the fall was finished and she had a day off so we spent it together. We took the day to go shopping and just enjoyed the day together. Today will be another busy day. Tomorrow will be filled up too so maybe I can get back to working on the tutorial on Sunday. I know some of you are interested and I will tell you it has to do with an applique technique.
I did want to share with you this Christmas surprise gift I received in the mail this week. A very sweet surprise from Cindy. On the outside is a little bag of red and green buttons, a little kit to make a yo yo ornament, and...
this ornament that Cindy made on one of her embroidery machines. I just think it is so pretty.
And take a look at what was inside the wrapping! This panel with these sweet little dresses and some yardage to go with it. It is going to make the cutest quilt.
Thank you so much Cindy for blessing me with this fantastic Christmas surprise! I love it all!

With Passion,
Carrie P.

Keeping Christmas is good but sharing it with others is even better.

    I would like to do embroidered ornaments, now if I can just get the time to learn how to use my machine.
