So with camera and clothes pins in tow, the pups and I went on a mission.
As I was sewing the blocks into one piece last night I realized that other than the last five blocks I’ve sewn since Christmas, I didn’t even remember the others. 2009 was a tough year and many parts of it seem kind of like a blur in time-- but I'm realizing everyone has times in their lives like this and hey-- at least I got a quilt out of the deal....
I’ve done two of her block of the month pieces. I did not sign up this year. It’s a snowman quilt--- I’ve got too many of the real thing and just didn’t want 12 months of them. But I still recommend it to others, It’s a darling quilt.

I haven't stitched on my baskets for a few days. I got off onto wool projects. But I will soon be back to it. Yours looks good and I hope mine comes out as well.
It looks wonderful!!
Your quilt is absolutely stunning.
I adore the quilt on the tree! That is a beautiful picture.
This is a wonderfulquilt. Love the colours in it.
Mel it is just fantastic! LOVE it! You did a beautiful job. I'm so glad you had those blocks to work on through those rough times.l
As usual, another winner!
I read something once about the pioneer women who made quilts and how they stitched to keep their hearts from breaking. I know my quilts hold a lot of memories - some good and some bad. I pray that 2010 will be a shining year for you, friend.
It's lovely Mel.
Beautiful! Love the snow scene.
It is stunning!!! I love how you "staged" it for its photo shoot :o)
What a lovely quilt, and it looks so great with all the snow in the piccy too :o).
Hugs,
Joy :o)
That looks so beautiful against the snowy background.
What an accomplishment! It's so beautiful.
This looks great - great colors, great setting.
It looks beautiful hanging in the snowy woods! Even though it is hard to get "detail" in the overall shot, we have seen each delightful block as you have stitched it! Great job. Sometimes I sew entire collections of blocks when I am stressed about something and then will find them later - and be all amazed because I won't remember making them. I know that feeling! Cheers!

It is stunning... and with a memory in each stitch. Very worth it, I'm sure!

This is the second quilt from this pattern that I've seen and I love this one the best.
I also like how you find such wonderful spots to photograph your quilts - it really makes them more interesting. I'll have to try and think of some ways to do that now and then.
Just beautiful!!!
