A change of gears

 This will be something else that will be destined for the Christmas box.  I thought I'd give THIS pattern a try and make a couple bookmarks.  I have one stitched and hope to do another before I start putting them together.


- THIS is a sweet design that would be perfect for a baby quilt.  

- I'm thinking I might make a couple of THESE to add to the Christmas box.  

- THIS might be good information to have on hand.

- There's lots of fun eye candy HERE.

- There might be some ideas HERE that you would like to try.

- If you're looking for a cute project to make for Easter, perhaps THIS little guy would be perfect.

    1. You'll get spring long before we do because it's going to take awhile for all the snow to melt. Easter Sunday is April 20th.

    2. That's about as late as Easter can be. Hope for warmer weather then.

    3. For sure! I suspect we'll have a lot of flooding when this snow melts though so it's likely going to get messy.

    1. I thought it was a nice pattern and I have a couple people on my gift list that are of Scottish descent so they will like them.

    I got a good laugh out of the story of your Mother's white Christmas Cactus. Thanks so much for sharing. I needed that.

  4. Very pretty bookmark. Since I have Scots heritage through my Mom I love the thistle.

    God bless.
