SNOW ARRIVAL. . .& now there are 3..oopsy, 4!

Another little snow person flew in today all the way from Pennsylvania. Thank you, Beverly! He is so cute. Your hand applique and embroidery are wonderful!

SP from Beverly

The new little guy is playing nicely with Feisty and Melty, up on the wall. And, now there are 3 - oopsy 4, forgot Twiggy - with 8 more to come.

Feisty by Frummie

Melty by Pat from FL

That's all for today, sew until next time: I'll be prepping a few DJ blocks and finishing up a design I'm working on - shhhh, it's a secret! What are YOU playing with today?

TWIGGY GETS A FACE... and off they fly

The first 7 SnowPeople are ready to fly off to their new homes. Here are three of them:


SnowPeople Swap



 



Their faces are all embroidered free-hand so no two are alike. And they will all have their own 'personalities'. Do snowmen have personalities? lol

This guy seems to be waving "bye bye" or maybe "hello"

Linking to Connie's linky party: FreeMotion by the River

Sew... until next time: I am off to my sewing circle to embroider the last few SP faces. What will YOU be doing today?

Quilty Hugs,

TWIGS it is! Thank you, everyone!

TWIGs is hands-down the winner! THANK YOU so much, everyone. I really appreciate your input. It helped a lot.

Lotsa lotsa TWIGs for SnowPeople Arms

All the twigs are cut - now just to fuse and sew them on. But, not tonight. This ol' gal is beat!

Thanks again to everyone - bloggers and quilters are sew wonderful! Until next time, I'm off to beddy bye right after I have one more piece of pie!  What are YOU up to?

Quilty Hugs,

TWIGS or BRANCHES??? That is the question...NEED opinions, Please!

The SnowPerson has 'evolved' a little bit since this morning. I changed his/her arms. What do YOU think... TWIGS or BRANCHES?? Which look better to you?

BRANCH arms

Prototype no longer in the running... but I do like the Bird on the Hat

Your opinion would be very much appreciated as I am having trouble trying to decide.  Thanks a bunch.

Sew, until next time... it's back to cutting out SnowPeople parts. [does that sound too gruesome?!]. What are YOU up to?

Quilty Hugs,

SNOW PEOPLE in the making & fresh Apple Pie!

The Snow People Block Swap 2012 is happening, thanks to our organizer Rosa. Thanks, Rosa! My little person, below, still needs a face and a few other things. *g*

SnowPerson - the first prototype

I've been busy drawing and making various SP parts. Now it's time to assemble my *snow* into people. My Sizzix will be used to cut some of the embellishment bits... at least that is the current plan.

Swedish Apple Pie

I was craving something sweet last night. Since I had 1/2 box of lovely green Granny Apples in the fridge a Swedish Apple Pie sounded good. Only takes a few minutes to put together and throw into the oven. NO crust to roll out - love that! It's hard to believe that something so simple can taste so good.

Swedish Apple Pie, no crust

Sew... until next time, I will be playing with more snow. What will YOU be playing with?
