Week 50: 11-17 December

Oops, I forgot to save this post! So I'm re-typing it. :)

I've been spending the last week making cookies and fudge and wrapping gifts! It's been starting to really feel like Christmas, and to see my DD get into it is so exciting.

This weeks theme: Festive

Lets have some fun! :)

Week 49: 4-10 December

Let's make a miniature quilted Christmas/holiday decoration! It can be a mantel scarf, a table topper, an ornament - up to you. Lets use a color combination of blue and white or red and green.

Let's have this weeks challenge be a three fold challenge:

Theme: holiday decoration
Color challenge: blue and white, or red and green
Extra challenge: It must be functional.

Week 48: 27 November- 3 December

The holidays are almost upon us! Lets get all the last minute holiday sewing done, and make a super small miniature this week!

Size requirements: Anything SMALLERthan 12"x12"!!
Theme: anything goes. :) No rules as long as it's smaller than 12"x12". :)

A Quilted Wedding Gift

Made a super huge quilt for my friends wedding.  It was quilted by my friend Charisma.

This quilt is about 118"x118".  There's no way that I could have quilted it on my home machine, so I gave it over to the amazingly talented Charisma to work her magic.  And work her magic she did. It's so big that Charisma couldn't actually get the whole thing in the picture.

My friend was so happy to receive the quilt!!  She said it was the only actual gift she received for the wedding.  Everyone else gave her money. I wanted to give her something nice, and I hope this counts as something nice.

Week 47: 20-26 November: Snow

This is going to be a super busy week for everyone - so lets do a miniature that has "Snow" somewhere on it. If you want, it can be fabric with snowflakes, or beads, or hot fix crystals, or something. :)

Week 46: 13-19 November

We're nearing the home stretch, and I'm pretty sure that I'll be continuing my challenge next year.

So, this weeks challenge is to Pick a Random Color and make a mini with that color in it somewhere.

Here's a great link to help you Pick your Color

Week 45: 6- 12 November

Do you put labels on your quilts? What do your labels say? I typically put my name (including maiden name), state, date completed and who it's for on my label. It's tough to fit that all on sometimes.

So lets go with a theme of Thanksgiving this week. It could be something that you're thankful for, could be something that represents Thanksgiving or anything you want it to be.
