My seven snowmen. This is a new block of the month (BOM) from Quilt Doodle Doodles. The fabric I used was one that I only had about half a metre of and quite a bit of it got used up. There are little moons in the fabric. I didn't want all the snowmen to look the same so I used different ways of making the snowball blocks, different white fabrics, different orange fabrics for the noses and different buttons for the eyes.
Perhaps I was influenced by this book. I read it to my grandson Luc who is visiting with his mom and little brother, Patric.
These are the threads that I have chosen to begin another BOM. It's Quilty Stitches Sampler Along hosted by Little Miss Shabby.
I'm linking up with The Needle and Thread Network and then I will be doing more sewing.
Stay warm (or cool down under) and happy sewing.
Love your little snowmen. I too am making this one, it was just too fun to resist!
ReplyDeleteCute snowmen, they look like they're having much fun - what is it going to be?
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, they are so cute!
ReplyDeleteSuch cute little snowmen tumbling about happily in the snow. At least they're a whole lot happier than I am about the snow!!
ReplyDeletecute is the right word for these little men. Are you going to add more, and make a quilt, a runner, or on the front of a bag? I can see this with snow gear packed inside. Keep warm, cheers from Jean
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping to get into that qal as well. Her designs are sweet. Your snowmen look great.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colours of embroidery threads...
ReplyDeleteThe snowman row is cheerful! We have not had any snowball weather yet, just a little of cold dry snow. Beautiful colours for your cross stitch project.
ReplyDeleteI love those jaunty little snowmen.xx
ReplyDeleteI love the changes you made, and anytime I see buttons, I love it even more! Very cute!
ReplyDeleteReally really cute:)

What a wonderful "line up!" I like that you made them all different. Looks like a fun BOM!
ReplyDeleteToo cute!
ReplyDeleteOh, those snowmen are so cute, they jumped straight to the top of my to-do list. And I agree with your no-two-alike philosophy.
ReplyDeleteOh dear, Dolores, what am I going to do with this stitch along? So pretty. And I love stitching in the evening. I think I might have to start.
ReplyDeleteI have also joined this stitch along, adding my own interpretations to it:
