Christmas Siggies done

I just finished the Christmas Siggies for the swap in October. I had to get them done early because Fall is an extremely busy time for me and the family. So now I can get back to other quilts I am working on and have missed terribly

I did get to stop at a quilt shop on the way home from Kansas City yesterday. It's Quilters Haven in Overland Park, Kansas. If you ever get the chance to stop I would. They have some beautiful shop samples hanging...didn't have the camera with me so I don't have pics. No quilt kits though, which is probably good as we as quilters or at least I, need to get back to picking out my own fabric for projects. I have been doing that with several quilts lately but for a few years I just made kits and I think my creativity suffered, not that I am that creative of a person anyway. When I first started quilting, 20 years ago, I always took a pattern to the store and picked out fabric. Well have a great day.

Ranette,
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I can't wait to see my completed DJ quilt, either! I'm debating what to use for the sashing... Maybe something green... I think I want the cornerstones to be pieced, too! (At least, that's what I'm thinking today...)
