Quilts to keep us toasty and warm.

Old man winter is not quite ready to depart yet, this morning we had snow on the ground and -20C with the wind chill!  As quilters, we can enjoy the fruits of our labour, cuddling under quilts, which we have made.

This one can be won, you can buy a raffle ticket from Anna, it is in support of the ride for cancer. 
 Quilted with a modern design and a variegated thread.
 The back of the quilt is an Australian fabric.
 A cross-stitch project, see the quilt? How many of us have started stitching projects years ago and are still working on them, from time to time?  Stitching is a relaxing way to pass the time.
Love the little ball of yarn. The joy of doing a few stitches, with needle and thread.
 Diamond Hill Part II
 The trumpet flowers and leaves.
 One of the lollipop swirl flowers, stitched in place.
 The big lollipop flower.
The block is done!

Now for something super cute, if you like sweets, little cakes, enjoy creating these treats with yarn,
this one is for you!
