I haven't actually finished anything but I did pack away Fall scraps and fabrics, and got out the bag of Christmas scraps to hopefully make a few tree skirts this year...
I emptied out the bag and sorted the pieces into shapes and sort of sizes
I collected some google images into a page of tree skirt ideas (see on the bottom right) but will mainly go on what scraps I have probably. Already starting with matching squares into 4-patches there
| some strips, some wide, some narrow and long |
| two needle books to be finished off |
| squares, and a stack of HST shapes to turn into geese |
two littles put out for the season...
Betty boop as a snow globe, and Santa after the holidays with sunburnt knees, in the tropics drinking a mai tai
a worthy sentiment to balance all the gooey sweetness of the season
some videos I liked this week...
omg, cool stitches !
I've been enjoying this series of videos a lot... one year I made snowglobes to share with bee mates

Ohhh I love all of the red. I can see that you have the best time creating with fabric. Have a nice day.
Lots of fun scraps to play with. Love your small finished quilts, especially Betty Boop as a snow globe, and Santa's sunburnt knees! So cute.

Love the colorful Christmas scraps you have. I think some are the same as I used years ago to make some Christmas Quilts for family. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Some great xmas scraps there. I used to have a colleague who made copious xmas themed sewn art and passed many of her off-cuts to me; none as exciting as your scraps.
Great projects, LeeAnna! Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings.
