Another Tree Skirt in the works....this one with mittens, hearts, birds, etc.  



Even though many of the designs are not typical Christmas....I think they work...

  4. You have been busy! I love all the detail you are getting from your thread sketching! And the colours of the Flower Garden block are so delicate! Did you fussy cut that third round-the peach with the trees? Fabulous work!

  8. Ok I just have to say, the first flower looks like a face. The leaves are the eyes, smile below.... which I think makes it even cuter :) Love these designs!

  17. I like this second tree skirt a lot, even if it's not traditionally christmas-y. It comes across as very winter-y, which makes it work.
