My Santa List

Kelly at Charming Chatter is hosting a wonderful wishlist give-away. Kelly wants to hear our favorite Chrismas memory. We should also share our Christmas wish from things offered from her quilt shop. How sweet!!!

We lived in a center hall Colonial and our bedroom door was right near the steps. Nearly every year, my four children would come into our room EARLY and beg us to let them go down and see if Santa came. I made them wait and wait and wait at the top of the stairs to build up the excitement (they'd inch their way down, step by step) until one year, the oldest had this brilliant idea of going down and checking first and then he woke everyone up saying that Santa came...needless to say, we had a long discussion with him about the Santa thing for his younger siblings!!!

Back to the give-away, here's my list of things I'd love to have from her shop:

The thing I really, really, really want is the Stella Blue quilt kit--did you see the colors??? How can you resist? I want it!!!! Santa, I've been good!!!! I'd love to do a quilt along, too!

I joined the Year of Schnibbles, so any one of those patterns would be next on my list and, of course, the charm pack that goes with them!!

The fat quarter would be the Boutique fat quarter bundle by Chez Moi from Moda. I would be so happy!!!

I think I'd like to try the Mill House Inn jelly roll by Fig Tree for Moda. I just love their stuff.

The Panache layer cake by Sanae for Moda would do just fine!!!

This was my first visit to her store so I've fallen in love with nearly everything!!! I'll be back--lots!

  1. Hi Gloria! What great Christmas memories -- oh the anticipation of checking to see if Santa came! Sounds like such fun -- I can see why your oldest was tempted to sneak (LOL)! Thanks for joining us in the fun, and I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas!

Online Quilt Festival - Spring 2009

What a great idea to host an online Quilt Festival ! Thanks to Amy @ Park City Girl! Be sure to stop by and add your favorite quilt! Well, I really want to join in this huge event, so I'm hoping that an almost completed quilt will qualify! I've chosen my Hungry Caterpillar quilt as my favorite because it is my best to date and who doesn't want to show their best? Of course, I have a long way to go, but I'm learning with each and every quilt. This quilt's story goes like this...it was a kit! I'm not ready to chose my own fabrics/colors just yet (may never be!). I got the kit and went to work trying to hit the one-year old granddaughter's birthday (missed it, of course). I simply loved its simplicity since it was panels that I just put together, but it was a good ego boost for this quilting novice, not to mention the practice I'd gotten! So, I loaded on my new HQ16 with the ProStitcher and it sat until I found a digital pattern to go with it. Once again, I...

Finished Clue 2

Here's Clue #2 of the mystery quilt on the Facebook group. I'm working on a bunch of other projects and will share as I get my act together. LOL

Making Some Headway

Wow, finally got all the Kids Will Be Kids blocks put together!!! On to the borders next! I can't wait to get it on the HQ! I worked on my January calendar and still need a few more days. Can't decide which fabric to add. I was trying to use just what I finished, but I think I'll just use some from current projects because I can't get enough done in one month. :) I also worked on my Double Delight a bit tonight, but I'm having trouble getting my on-point squares to not shift when sewing. I need to get those pins Bonnie talks about in her video on her Quiltville site. That's it for Sunday. Gloria
