OUR TOP 2 Today are.....

A stunning Christmas block caught our attention

it was precise and unforgettable...for those of us who do remember

polaroid cameras, this is just delightful for fussing cutting..

WELL DONE!

This one reminded us that getting up at 5 am before our parents did

would not guarantee presents would be opened sew early...lol

great applique work, delightful photo..

And our HONOURABLE MENTION.....

I don't think anyone would disagree, that this from our very own Santa Lesley, was done to perfection.
Seriously, her stitching around Santa and her name..why it was perfect....


Now don't forget to come back tomorrow....it is sadly our last day...
OHH we are at 191 Blocks...surely we will top 200+ tomorrow.
.I know I have at least that amount lol

Day 5 and we continue to Think Christmas... 155 + blocks today...

Each day, I am thinking you must be running out of ideas..
and then I see what you have created and I am
thinking Christmas all over again and I am sew inspired...

What a delightful way to start a day
by cheering for you all ...
