Less Than 60


A gentle reminder!


There are less than 60 days till Christmas.



Be gentle - I'm just the messenger. LOL



I'm crazy about Countdown to Christmas by Sweetwater for Moda! I want to make lots and lots of projects using these fabrics but I'm trying to exercise moderation. Sigh!!!



George decided to join me in my 'Countdown to Christmas'.


Doesn't he look spiffy?


There are lots of scraps now to use in various giftee type projects.


No, you can't have George! LOL


Enjoy your day - we have a stressful day ahead of us!



Please keep us in your thoughts today.


In Friendship!

Darlene, your Santa George turned out great, I just love it! Do you think that fabric can make an ugly quilt, I think not! Hope your day has gone well.

Melanie said...

This is darling. Look kind og like churn dash blocks--- one of my favorite. When I make a quilt, it's amazing how the scraps grow into more projects. Bags, Journal covers, jewelry keeps, bookmarks, table toppers... an on an on... have fun...

A local radio station here has already started broadcasting nothing but Christmas music, yikes! It's coming at us like a bullet train. I adore George, what a georgeous quilt! [ yes I know I spelled it different. humor me.]

I am praying for you guys today, Darlene!

Cheryl said...

George was a perfect choice for this line...I too like the way the words on the fabric are highlighted in the blocks.
Good thoughts and prayers to Mr. Daze!

Diane said...

It snowed here this morning....looks more like Christmas than 2 days until Halloween.
Reminds me, you never got my package did you? I just thought of it now.

Kigwit said...

Hope all goes well for you and the Mr today.

actually, I love the anticipation of Christmas. And I vow that I am not going to make myself crazy crafting tons of presents. Only for the worthy!

Karen said...

Darn! George would look great at my house.

deb said...

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers today!!!!

Quiltdolls said...

everywhere i go people keep telling me that. I went to the country loft today(la mesa) & they had a halloween sale. I got an extra 10 % off my fabric & they also had halloween stuff on sale.
my mom & I went to kohls & we bought a couple gifts . actually they are 4 me. a razor for me to use on my autistic son. I cannot wait to use it.
Hope you do not mind me telling you my story today.
