Christmas Row Quilt Pattern

I got a knot in my stomach when I read this blog post on About.com Quilting

Are we heading there already??  Didn't this year just started a while ago?  Well it seems even though I don’t keep track of time other people do.  So look at this lovely quilt and get started.

Crocheted Merry Christmas Wreath

In our guild many quilters crochet just as hard as they quilt, so when I found this pretty wreath pattern on Lily's Sugar 'n Creams' site, I just had to share it.

Decorating for Christmas

I stopped doing Christmas decorations a couple of years ago when my kids turned older.  The problem I had with decorating was that everyone was keen to set up the stuff but when it became time to remove and pack these away, I was left all alone.

However with our first grandchild having her first Christmas this year, I plan to decorate again.  No proper grandma can  go without Christmas decorations in her house hey?

Sew Mama Sew has a couple of tutorials on her blog to make some of these decorations.  So take a look over HERE and get started!
