I've finally begun quilting my "Lollipop Flower Medallion"
the first ever medallion style quilt I've made....
along with Audrey.
She held a
SAL tutorial for 3 quilts
in her style and methods
on her blog...
Perhaps you can see the
quilting better
here--
I am using WonderFil Perle
Cotton #8 in the ecru color of 904..
All my central piece is done in
raw edge applique style--
I really l💜ve all those
raggedy, frayed edges..;)))))
[I do miss Audrey's posts and
seeing the quilts she's working on..
Her last post will explain why she is
no longer posting...but she has left
links to Bramble Bloom 2 &3 if you
should want to follow up with this SAL.]
*************************
It is a very gray, rainy, and windy day
here so I lit our little tabletop tree
when I first got up to give our
tv room a bit of warmth and color...
Here is a little sample of how it glows--so comforting
on this raw Winter's day--
And all our beautiful
snow has been washed away
now with this
rain....;(((((((
It is but a lovely memory as
our temp is 52 right now...
So soft and hushed......
*******************************
I did my final "big" shop before
Christmas yesterday and I am
hoping that I won't have to go back
for any forgotten items....👋
I now have all the makings for
my fudge; I plan on making
two batches this weekend:
Chocolate/Orange with almonds
and
White Chocolate with cranberries
and walnuts....
I look forward to these all year long and
only make it for Christmas gifts
{and us, too of course}.
:)))))
😃😄😇😋😍
**************************
My waxed amaryllis is ready
to burst into bloom
it is a bloom waiting for that magic
moment to open....;)))
and
My planted amaryllis from a kit
has begun sending up shoots...
If I remember correctly this will be
a pink one....
I wonder if I will have flowers for
Christmas Day????
*******************
Tonight's easy-peasey supper
will be my leftover chicken and rice
casserole reheated...
Take care, stay warm
and enjoy this run-up to
the holidays...
Hugs, Julierose
