2009 Blocks of the Month: Snowmen

Happy New Year! This new year is definitely going to be one of landmark change. I can’t wait to see what God has in mind for us. One thing is this new Block of the Month. I like snowmen, decided it was time to design a new quilt with them, and then decided to give them to you! I hope you enjoy them. Please cut loose and have fun with embellishments (my favorite part). Use real sweater fabric for one of the sweaters, use buttons and beads for the lumps of coal and the eyes, use crystals for some bling, and try silk ribbon french knots for the hair on the snowlady and snowchild. Try them all on a dark blue or dark green background and scatter a bunch of snowflakes all around. When you get to December, use tiny rick rack for the gingerbread man’s frosting or try a decorative stitch on your machine using Sulky® rayon thread. And as always, have fun!

Happy stitching!

Nancy
