Christmas Through The Year

It's a good thing Darlene is running the Christmas Through the Year!  It motivated me to finish a couple candle mats today so that I could have my entries for March.  So, here are my newest Christmas gifts. 

These were my Primitive Gatherings mats of the month for January and February, and they are done and ready for gifting, with the addition of a little candle and holder.  Now that the weather is so nice, I'm really done with anything having to do with snow, so the Christmas gift I make in April is not going to by wintry!

Thanks, Darlene, for keeping us on task with this!

Ready for Spring!

It's about time for a finish to be shown on this blog, don't you think?!  The Banner of the Month for March from Primitive Gatherings was this bunny, and he's done in time for Easter.  He even matches the little mat I made a couple years ago.  I've really been enjoying the Banners of the Month so far.  It's fun to be able to get something done start to finish without it becoming a UFO in the process.

I've been working on some other things, so I hope to have some more finishes to show you soon!

Hands2Help Signup Time!

If you're looking for a fun charity quilting project, check out the Hands2Help logo on my sidebar.  Confessions of a Fabric Addict is hosting this again this year, and there are two charities to choose from.  I can't wait to get started on my quilt!  Signups are this week, and quilts are due to be completed at the end of May.  Size guidelines are fairly loose - quilts can be between 45" and 72" on all sides - so this is a great chance to make a quilt to give away.  Hope to see you there!
