Christmas Open House at the Greenhouse

Today my daughter and I visited one of the local greenhouses during their Christmas Open House. Seeing the sea of poinsettias makes me feel like Christmas is near.


















This is the poinsettia that followed us home and now lives in our dining room.

Criss-Cross Apple-Sauce

This little quilt was finished to the flimsy stage last weekend. The pattern is Criss-Cross Apple-Sauce from Blue Meadow Designs. http://bluemeadowdesigns.blogspot.com/

This is a table topper (32" square) that was part of Myra's Mystery Mondays for the last month. I added one extra border to the design as I thought the piece needed more pansies.

Myra has promised that the next Mystery Monday project will be made from a charm square pack. I have a few charm packs that I have picked up at quilt shows in the past and so I will be looking forward to see what Myra has in store for us.
