CHRISTMAS QUILT ALONG

I have joined the Christmas Quilt along.....just click on Christmas Quilt and it will take you to the link for the information if you want to join.

Now She suggest that the 2nd Saturday of each month....now...me not getting out much was trying to figure out if yesterday was the second Saturday... I know, I could have gotten out a calendar....too easy.

So I just decided to go ahead and do my quilt along yesterday. Well..yesterday night. Wanted to do something fun.

So how do you like it so far?
I am adding a little black.
You are saying "Barb....that doesn't look like Christmas to me".....and I say..... "Oh...my little padawan.....be patient....wait...!!"
Come join the fun, the button is on my side bar as well.... and she just suggested Saturday, she says one day a month...well...mine was one evening and then I got side tracked....how does that happen? Getting side tracked?

It's a Samoan Christmas! Looks like stockings to me. I need to get off my but and start making some stockings.

You certainly have caught my interest. I'll stay tuned, holding my breadth, until I know what you are making on your Christmas Quilt-along. Love the fabrics. In fact you've inspired me. I now have a perfect Christmas gift idea for a dear friend....just need to go find some "red" tropical fabric, like yours.

Oh my gosh, you're posting up a storm! I loved the corn cartoon! Too dang funny. Kudos to you for getting your stash down. I loved your husband's comment about getting you by a fabric store and then his little laugh! I could almost hear it through the computer, lol! You appear to have captured a gem of a husband. You go girl!

hmmm.....can't wait to see what this is....your Kona black and white solids link to inch worm don't work, it does suggest the right website though

You're right -- that doesn't look like Christmas. And as soon as you figure out how the sidetrack thing happens, will you please let me know?

Hey that will probably pass for Christmas where you are living :0)

Well, it is red. And it is the tropics. So that's probably what Christmas looks like in Amerika Samoa!

What fun! Even at one night a month-you'll have something nice for
Christmas.

Terrific fabric!

Looks like an Island Christmas Barb. Very pretty fabrics. Will be back to see what you have up your sleeve. :) Happy Stitching!

Hmmm, interesting! Whatchu up to girl? Is it a stocking? Or maybe a wonderful bag to fill with Christmas presents. A little black never hurt anyone, but just a little, Okay?

It looks great, I love the fabric and am looking forward to seeing what it becomes. Oh, and if you want it to be Christmassy, then it IS Christmassy in my book.

Elizabeth said...

Oh, this looks fun! I'm not sure if I should join! I've got so much going on, but it is fun to quilt with friends, so I'm thinking on it. I love your red fabrics! I can't wait to see what you're up to!

I love black. I also like to mix it with gold for Christmas and your red colour print is awesome.
I'm catching up on your blog and you have me in stitches....your husband sounds wonderful...you are right not to share him!

Pat said...

Looks interesting. hmmmmm!
Can hardly wait to see it. Thank you for sharing.
Happy Quilting!

That does look Christmas-y to me! It is just so hot at Christmas time and sometimes all that North American Christmas stuff just doesn't fit in! Can't wait to see what you are making!!
