Oh boy..

Well, the Fall pumpkin quilt did not go so well, I tried machine quilting it and I did not like it one little bit!!  I LOVE MY QUILTING FAIRY!  - I wonder if she can hear me??  So, I thought let's take machine quilting out and hand quilt it.  Well, between my shoulder/arm and finger injury there was  no way to hand quilt it.  Then I spotted a little hole in the one pumpkin!!!!  It's more like a 1/4 inch slit.  I am frustrated.. I guess i could stitch in closed an maybe put a lady bug or bee button on it.  

Hmm.. well then the seasons changed, so I decided to start a winter/christmas project.  I found a photo in one of my old magazines and decided to do it in christmas colors!

I put the photo up as a reminder of what I pulled colors from.  I really like the look so far!
