Terrie, The quilt is just lovely. I can just imagine how happy you were to be able to make it and Alfie's Mom will be to receive it. Thanks so much for sharing it with us.

Perfect little quilt Terrie! I'm sure it will be loved. I'm glad Alfie is doing so well.

My great grandfather was Alfred. He was an amazing man. Left Switzerland at 19 or so, came to the United States via Galveston Texas and made a new life. Now that I think about it, he made beautiful tables of inlaid wood. They were a quilt made of wood. I'm sure your Alfie will be as loving and wonderful. Congratulations!

Terrie, super baby quilt and so happy to hear that baby Alfie is celebrating Christmas in style
Luann - I have been searching for a "Spoonflower" alternative here in UK and think I have found one so something to check out in the new year. Watch this space as they say. Thanks for sending me down this route and make me seriously do something about it.

As we being Scandinavian celebrate Christmas tonight (24th) I will take this opportunity to wish everybody here on the forum and ones behind the scenes a very Merry Christmas if you celebrate this holiday and if not a Happy end to 2015 hopefully busy at your machines. Thinking of everybody who has troubles to cope with and I hope 2016 will be the year that will bring good health and happiness.

fabulous news about Alfie! so happy for you all, Terrie.

wishing everyone a fabulous and joyful Christmas - may you all celebrate as you like best!

Peace, good health, happiness & much much much fun to all.

Marianne,
Your design on your post is very nice. I could see it as a panel, 24" by WOF and some coordinating fabrics to go with.
I hope that your UK sight is as wonderful as Spoonflower. I imagine that customs fees would make it cost prohibitive to order from US. That's a sad thing, along with postage it puts some very nice items out of one's financial comfort zone.

Merry Christmas

[lotti]

MERRY CHRISTMAS and a Joyous New Year to all.

Terri, great news about Alfie.

I've been having fun trying out marbling on fabric with Izzy. These are our first attempts.











just wish I could work out how to get darker/deeper colours.

Great news about Alfie! Babies only know to keep growing, don't know if the odds are against them. He'll do great.
I didn't think I made many quilty items this year, but when I turned in 4 small (very small) charity quilts at this month's guild meeting, I felt better.
Merry Christmas to you all!
