It's my turn to show my "Holiday Lane". This blog hop has been filled with adorable little villages of houses all dressed up for the holidays. I would like to say a big Thank you to Mdm Samm at http://www.sewwequilt.com/ and Pauline at http://quiltnqueen.blogspot.com/ for organizing this hop and a big thanks to Jill from http://www.jillilystudio.com/ for supplying the pattern. Thanks for encouraging us to try new things. This pattern was easy to follow and fun to make. I used fleece for the snow. I tried a couple different stitches to attach the snow to the roofs. Not sure which one I like, but it was fun trying different stitches on my machine. I found some cute mini holiday lights that I hand sewed to one of the trees. I think I will go back and add some to at least one more tree. I'm still just a "stitch in the ditch" quilter, but I plan to get courageous and try new quilting techniques soon. I just purchased a book to learn machine quilting called "Show me how to Machine Quilt" by Kathy Sandbach.
I hope you enjoy my contribution to the hop:
This second photo is very blurry, but I wanted to show the mini lights on the tree. Aren't they just sweet? I plan to hand sew more on the tall tree to the right on the photo above.
Please check out the other adorable pillows for today:
