Your projects are just so lovely - the 4" stars - wow! And also love how you have finished your snowman, very inspired and effective. Gorgeous gifts :-) Great buying with the kit too. At times I struggle to fit it all in as well but like you, I find the friendships and inspiration I gain through blogland are priceless.Raewynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11123089629481933099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-52639855215230868382016-01-11T09:57:10.112-07:002016-01-11T09:57:10.112-07:00You are on top of your game!

I always love to see your pretty header come up and then see what you've been up to.<br />Cute Star quilt - great setting for those HST. <br />I agree on the extra needles - looks wonderful and balances better with that chubby and happy snowman.<br />Your BOM blocks are so fun! I look forward to seeing the setting. I love that you are always open to change things to suit you!! I think designers like that too!<br />Happy Happy New Year and I hope you and your mother are doing better.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08619642267222624728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-55768402387442064162016-01-05T12:22:09.361-07:002016-01-05T12:22:09.361-07:00The stars piece is gorgeous!!

The snowball blocks are the perfect way to finish off your cute snowman - funny that when you first showed this, I thought the tree looked fine, but it really does look better now that you filled it in. I don't blame you for snapping up that kit - it is going to be a great quilt - what kind of applique will you do? I'm sorry I missed out on the Peppermint Roca - I assume it is now out-of-season - sounds yummy!

One of these days I'm going to get the nerve to try a miniature. I know what you mean about blogging taking up so much time, and I've been thinking about whether or not I want to keep it going. I also hadn't seen the information you posted from Google. I wish they would do something about the people that leave comments as a no reply blogger. I enjoy your blog, and hope you will keep it going. Hope both you and your Mom are well very soon. Happy New Year to you!

(smile) It's a quite delightful little thing! I'm with you and prefer Christmas quilts that aren't made of Christmas prints. Did you make it to VDG on Friday? I thought about going, but decided it would be a madhouse, so passed on the opportunity. I did get some goodies at Bennion's in Kaysville though, so I didn't go totally without some good deals. Your little snowman quilt is delightful - I'm happy that you didn't add a speck of red to it - the snowball blocks are perfect to frame the center.... Smart gal to stock up on your favorite chocolate - I'm not a fan of mint, so I grabbed a bunch of red & green M&Ms - LOL! Good to see your post!Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04466709417592027635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096999232383688886.post-42308076097650962782016-01-02T18:12:17.775-07:002016-01-02T18:12:17.775-07:00What a fun post!!

You are too hard on yourself. It is beautiful and would be even if it really did have cut off points! Sorry to hear you and your mom have had health problems. Hope the new year brings health to you both.<br />The Buttermilk Basin blocks are so pretty. I can't wait to see how you set them.<br />LOVE the snowball quilt! Great suggestion by Sandra.<br />So glad you are all set to make your Christmas quilt without Christmas fabrics. Do I see non-wool applique in your future?!?!?<br />You must have great self control. There is no way I could keep chocolate in the sewing room and have it last any amount of time.<br />Such precious gifts. Your sentiments match mine exactly.

I hope you don't stop blogging. You've included so many great finishes. The snowman with the snowball border is great with his fuller Charlie Brown tree. It was a great border idea. None of my LQS carry much Kim D. Fabric so I tend to forget how much I love her stuff. Thanks for the reminder. I enjoyed looking at all the freebies on Henry Glasse's website too.
