August 5
Friends, this is where this chicken wants to be
if we're gonna have Christmas in August in Texas!
AT THE POOL !
This was supposed to be a wall hanging....HA, I was having so much fun I couldn't quit ! Finally common sense kicked in...if it got much bigger it would be too hard to maneuver around and quilt. It is the biggest quilt I've ever quilted on any machine I own, and the first on my new Janome.
THAT was a learning experience - like Forrest Gump, "That's all I have to say about THAT!"
It ended up 52 x 52 inches. The fabrics I used are Bliss and Vintage Modern. The inspiration for my rooster was a picture I found on Pinterest by the talented Florine Johnson.
There are no Christmas fabrics in it, but the colors make you think of Christmas!
January through November the flying geese blocks can be flying geese...
in December they can be Christmas trees !
I can use it all year long !
Was I thinking of Foghorn Leghorn when I drew this guy ?
While I was quilting him I was thinking about what he says...."I say, I say, Boy"!
I haven't named this one yet...any suggestions ? Christmas Dinner maybe ?
I used a light blue thread for his feathers. Ranchman thought I was nuts,
but it doesn't look blue, it makes him pop !
This is another little quilt I made with Snowman Gatherings. I had to put a MSIC star or two in it.
Thank you to my dear DIL for helping me take pictures.

The snow is thread !
I used a water soluble paper. You lay your thread in between two sheets of this paper and then stitch all over it. When your finished stitching you run it under the faucet and the paper disappears ! That was fun !
Did you notice that some of the snow is tan ? I think one of the snowMEN ..went.. behind the tree !
Well, thanks for stopping by, I hope you have fun checking out all the very talented people that made Christmas eye candy for us all to enjoy !
Here's what's happening the rest of the week.
God bless you.
