Sue of Quilt Times http://quilttimes.blogspot.com/ is hosting this November Christmas QAL. I want to know where the time went! Boy, I feel as if these months keep going by faster and faster. So today I will enjoy the gorgeous November day we are having here and hopefully get some stitching done.
I have several Thank You's I want to mention. First one is to Elizabeth of Sand and Sunshine http://sandandsunshine.blogspot.com/ who hosted the October Christmas QAL and from whom I won this terrific pincushion.
Second is to SewCalGal http://sewcalgal.blogspot.com/ from whom I won the pattern and fabric to make a wine vest.
It isn't made yet but I'll get to it soon. It's that time thing I mentioned earlier:) These vests are so neat and useful. Thank you, SewCalGal. Please note that SewCalGal has a Friday giveaway each week.
My third thank you is to Donna of So Sew Crafty http://sosewcrafty.blogspot.com/. Donna posted about a giveaway during the September QAL and I went over to the site and entered. And I won for becoming a follower of the site. So Donna, thanks for sharing the info. I know that when bloggers share about giveaways it increases the competition. But the more giveaways we enter the better our chances are of winning something we can use so it's a nice thing to do.
Fourth is my Thank You to Barbara H. Cline and C&T Publishing, from whom I won the prize about which Donna posted.
There isn't any reason why I can't make one of the beautiful quilts in the Simply Triangles book because I have the ruler and the instructions. And I intend to make one in the coming year. Barbara's blog is at http://www.quiltingal.blogspot.com . Her quilts are treasures. Thank you, Barbara.
So what am I going to work on today? My cross stitch project from Point De Croiz novalee02 http://novalee02.over-blog.com/ .
I stayed up late last night working on it. So today and tomorrow are cross stitching days, hopefully.
And the Christening Dress and Cape are completed. In my humble opinion the pictures don't do it justice.
I think that a baby filling them out will make them look even better:)
See you later.
God Bless.
