Winter is Coming...

Well, actually, the Winter Solstice quilt blocks are coming...along... Paulette from Sweet P Quilting and Creations is hosting a Sew-A-Long for this cute quilt from Country Threads. I'm going to miss them. They are closing their shop after many, many years. So back to our little quilts, this month we were tasked with finishing the small houses and the star blocks from the quilt. Here are my houses:

and here are my stars:

I can't wait to see what everyone else has done with their blocks. Last month we finished the barns:

Here's the quilt. I bet we do trees next month but Paulette hasn't put up her blog post yet. You can see the links to everyone's blocks at Paulette's blog HERE.

I love the little sheep. I've been wanting to use some of my homespun fabrics and this is the perfect quilt to do that. Hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend! XO and cheery wave from Bev

paulette said...: Sorry Bev, I slept in! Your blocks look fantastic! Don't you LOVE this quilt!! Your 'dark':o)) colours are wonderful! So next months we are working on the rest of the quilt and saving the border for October...or if that is too much you can team the lambs with the border. This will give us plenty of time to get 'er done! My sewing room looks like the Homespun bin exploded!! I will be pulling out the greens and brown homespuns next and working on trees...look out sewing room! KERRRPOW!! More homespuns added to the mess!!! You take care and Happy Stitching!! This quilt is going to be one of your all time favourites...I'm sure of it!! :o))

To All My Dogs Who Have Gone On Before Me

An Important Personal Message

My dear friends - Have you noticed that the world seems to be getting more and more evil and corrupt? Have you ever wondered, assuming that Revelations is true, where we are time-wise and what will happen in the last days? At the bottom of this page, there is a 7 minute video that has no narration, just Bible facts about the sequence of events and where we might be. Of course, some of you won't think this is important, some of you might look at the video to see what the Bible does say and some of you may be offended and unfollow me. I personally believe that time is short. We are at 30 seconds to midnight. Things are coming this year that will affect the USA. Watch or not. I mean no offense. If I believe there is something to warn you about and I don't do it, I will be held accountable. I care about what happens to all of us. In love!
