Christmas Peek!

Lots of storms rumbling around the top of our 'hill' today, and although there's been lots of whippy wind and a few brief showers, so far it's "All talk no action". :0) Not that I'm looking to have wild storms ... but a good bit of rain would be welcome, as everything is so very dry.

So ... what's a gal to do on a dreary, overcast afternoon? Head to the sewing room of course! :0) And I'm pretty happy to report that I'm ALMOST finished a new Christmas pattern sample. Wanna take a sneaky peeky?

Some stitching, some appliqué, some perle thread-quilting and some yummy Christmas fabrics. I've used some of Lynette Anderson's cute Christmas range "Candy Cane Angel". I got my pretties at my "Home-Away-From-Home", but for those not lucky enough to be near the Quilters Angel, Lynette still has some fabric bundles listed on her website HERE.

Tonight I'll be settling back in front of a DVD or two to stitch the binding down ... and add a few other little bits of "BLING" to my Christmas hanger. Then will come the task of writing the instructions ... BLECH!! I'll also be designing a companion project before the pattern for this project is ready to release. I keep telling myself it will be ready for Christmas ... but 'Self' has not said WHICH Christmas! Tee! Hee! Hee!

Hope you're all having a great week so far and that there's some stitching in your schedule. OPAM gals ... don't forget ... it's almost THAT time of the month again when my Sweet Partner-In-Crime, Sweet Peg, and I start collecting finish tallies, so update those sidebar lists and email one of us with your total. But right now ... I'm off to play Polly. I bet you guessed that's what I was going to say! :0) Til next time ...

BEAR HUGS!

CHEERS!
