Time of the Year!
And the busiest too of course...
unless you are the newest member of the household and the sweetest present under the tree. Our daughter took this picture last night of Elsa in her favorite place to sleep that isn't a lap.
Christmas Strings is now a flimsy and if it weren't bitterly cold out I'd drag someone outside to hold it up for me. As you can see by the light reflecting on it - the sun is shining brightly but it was -19 when we woke up this morning. So far it has been a VERY cold & snowy winter in Northern Minnesota.
I just love looking at all of the Christmas fabrics in this quilt!
It's not going to be finished before Christmas - but hopefully shortly after so I can enjoy it for a little while at least.
Merry Christmas to all who celebrate this joyous season!
I've always loved to make things. Join me while I reboot my creativity, create a new quilting room and tackle LOTS of unfinished projects.
it was 12 when I got up, down to 6 degrees now. I think you are sending it this way.
ReplyDeleteI love all of the Christmas fabrics in that one too, very pretty!
We had similar temps here today too but the sun is shining and the wind is NOT blowing so all is good. It was a good day to sew.
ReplyDeleteElsa looks so sweet under the Christmas Tree. She has really settled in well. Merry Christmas.
Elsa looks like she is enjoying Christmas in her new spot.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you and yours.
Beautiful picture and beautiful quilt! I love that pattern. I need to make another one myself.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Deb!
ReplyDeleteOh Elsa looks so beautiful under that tree!!! What a sweet kitty :*) And I love your Christmas Strings quilt - perfect for the season. And a great way to use up every last bit of those wonderful Christmas fabrics :*)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you & your family, Deb. I just started another string quilt today....it's all in green....and there are some holiday fabrics in the mix. I just love string quilts! They always make me smile.
ReplyDeleteI wish you and yours a joyous and peaceful Christmas.

ReplyDeleteMerry merry Christmas Deb....LOVE the pic of Elsa....
ReplyDeleteA very blessed Christmas to you and yours ; )
ReplyDeleteit tickles me how your little adopted kitty made herself so at home so quickly. Our adopted kitty (now six yrs old) did the same thing. Its like this was his home all along, it just took him a while to find us - two years! Your little Elsa is so sweet, I just want to reach through the computer screen and pet her!
ReplyDeleteLove your Christmas Strings, btw. VERY festive!
Merry Christmas!
love, Sandy
Merry Christmas! Might be cold outside but warm inside with the love of family, friends and God's love in our hearts. Your quilt adds to the warmth!!
ReplyDeleteYour adopted kitty is so cute under the tree. Oh.My.Goodness. -19? It's going to be a balmy 65+ degrees here in AZ. I do really like your string top, it's very fun and interesting ;-)
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas !

ReplyDeletelove the string quilt too, looks so rich and warming in its colours and fabrics.
Wishing you much joy over Christmas and a happy, healthy New Year : )
I don't know what that temp translates to in Celsius, but it sounds mighty cold! I hope you had a lovely Christmas. Ours was a lovely warm day in South Australia.
ReplyDeleteYour Christmas Strings are looking wonderful. I hope you had a lovely Christmas.
