I'm completely in denial that it is the 1st of December, the month in which Christmas happens, illegedly! Yikes!
I have so little to show by way of finishes for November, that I completed my denial by not taking part in Lily's Quilts Fresh Sewing Day for the first time since it started! Boo!
But I still have some lovely things to show you today!
There is a container leaving Belfast this week, headed for the Philippines. These Bee Blessed children's quilts will be on it.
The Modern Quilt Guild of Ireland very kindly donated the 'Trip Around the World cutie (special thank you to Anneliesse!). The 4 baby quilts were long arm quilted by my friend Janette, and the Cosmo Cricket quilt was made by Bee Blessed.
Our thoughts, love and prayers go with these quilts to the many displaced children and families in the Philippines.
And closer to home, check out these stunning sampler blocks made by my Friday class:
Lots of hard work have gone into these! Well done ladies! I look forward to seeing your finished quilts!
And for all our Bee Blessed contributors - guess what - you get a month off in December!! Woohoo! Thank you for your many donations and blocks this year! We look forward to making and donating many more quilts with you in 2014.
Jxo
It is lovely that you are sending quilts off to the Philippines, the folks there were hit so hard. And thank you for including those of us from far away in Bee Blessed, I look forward to sending blocks when I can in the coming year.
