Let's Get Quilting - June 29, 2015 Edition


Hello Monday!

It's a beautiful morning and time for another Let's Get Quilting giveaway. Congratulations to the winner from last week's giveaway, Kathy E.

School's out and it is time to be outside. Leanne Anderson's Clearwater Critters is a fun collection that reminds of the outdoors. Owls, birds, rabbits and yes, even skunks, are so sweet.




Good luck!

    I have made two throws for christmas from christmas fabrics that I have had for several years now - that is about as close as I can bring myself to think about christmas this time of the year....I am usually one of those last minute makers.

    Christmas present projects are definitely on my mind already. I only have so much time and I am slow! I probably should have started in January. Haha :)

    Even if I don't plan ahead to make a Christmas gift, I usually do sew something and can be found finishing it up on Christmas Eve. I think it's becoming one of my traditions.
