What am I talking about? The December block for the Country Cottages BOM is now done:
I DO think I might want to add some snow on the roof and smoke coming from the chimney, a little bit like the January block that came first. Here's a look at all 12 months' blocks up on my design wall.
Of course, I still need to add sashing and borders, but it's coming along and I like it alot. I have all kinds of buttons to add as embellishments, but those will have to wait until it's quilted.
This has been such a fun free pattern from Shabby Fabrics--my thanks to Jennifer!
I agree that another little curl or something from the chimney on this last block would help tell the story, so to speak. This is going to make such a fun quilt--and free! How cool. I can't wait to see the sashing and the whole quilt come together.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the smoke curl - this is so, so cute. Please be sure to show the piece with all the sashings. Beautiful job!

So cute and charming! Decorate the tree for more holiday greetings.
ReplyDeleteI love it!
ReplyDeleteCountry Cottages - so cute and cheerful! You sure get a lot done!
ReplyDeleteOh the blocks are adorable. I am so bummed though. I forgot to get the last two block downloads from them! My family and I were really sick with whooping cough the end of last year so I guess I have a good excuse. Oh well. Maybe I can wing it and design my own blocks based on the pictures. It will still be cute right? Thanks for sharing them with us!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see it completely finished. It's darling!
