My version of a Jan Patek pattern from last year...
this is hanging on my dining room wall to
herald the coming of Christmas
and
with this really cold North wind and
actual (be still my 💓) snow flurries
yesterday!!!:))))
I had a lot of fun making this one--
especially that little flying Angel..
**********************
We lit our little Maple Sugar scented
candle and placed it on my
little Christmas Ojos mat
and watched the sun go down at
4:20 yesterday with early
darkening skies and wind lashed
trees...
***********************
just maybe (fingers crossed) my amaryllis
will bloom?????
*************************
I call this "Christmas Strawberries"
I began making these a while back
after seeing Melisa's quilt
(click)
So....
I drafted my own pattern
(shamelessly copying hers--
she ok'ed it hahaha).
**Note the skewed strawberry cap on
the topmost one--should I undo it??
Or just let it go its own way???
Her full sized quilt is such a beauty,
I couldn't resist trying a few blocks...

A sure sign of winter is my
December Daily Journal [above]
making its debut
that I
work in every year....
Here are a few pages to be
journaled on....
They are all made from magazine images, my own
stamped images, and various scrappy leftovers
which include any junk mail and scraps--
Only my "Rudebecka" Reindeer is made
from fabric and one of my dies...

Both Tom and I are under the
weather with head colds..
so we are mostly napping and
taking it easy...
Until next time..
hugs, Julierose,
La blageuse
