XMAS CARDS in JULY

  Today is SCRAP HAPPY SATURDAY over at ANGELA's. I am away with my daughter and not my sewing. We are making XMAS CARDS. 
Here is a photo with all our supplies, the mess we make and the cards we have made so far. Pinterest is getting a workout and we have heaps more ideas to do. 



You can see a 9 patch quilt to the left. This was the first quilt my daughter made when she was 16. She is now 28 and it still gets used. She machine pieced, hand appliqued and hand quilted it. Well done to Kristy. The other quilt Kristy and I both designed and I made it up for her first baby. My little grandson Nicholas. These get well used up at the cabin.

Christmas in July! So many of our quilt stores have the same idea. It seems you can buy anything Christmas at a good discount this week. Lovely cards. Lovely quilts.
