These three fabrics, along with two layer cakes of Fresh Squeezed, are the inspiration for a couple of new projects. They were a Christmas gift from a good friend and have, ever since I opened the package, been out where I can see them and start planning the first of the new quilts that will be made with them. These bright cheerful fabrics are the perfect antidote to winter’s grey skies and cold temperatures.
The yardage and one of the layer cakes are washed, a neutral has been chosen so all that’s left is to decide which design to make first.
Baxter on the windowsill. Yesterday was a very windy and cold day and was snowing on and off but nothing that stayed on the ground. So far he doesn’t seem interested in the snow at all.
if you look at my blog today you’ll see plenty of snow. It’s hard to belive that we live so close but our weather can be so different……..

No snow here in Nebraska! Temps have been in the 50’s and the forecast is at least the 40’s the next two weeks. No snow???? Fine with me!

I really loved that Fresh Squeezed when it came out. I made a messenger bag for my niece out of a charm pack. It was hard to get yardage in Canada and disappeared so fast 🙂
Happy New Year Cathi!!
