I did plan this out on EQ and after a Sunday afternoon spent in the sewing room I was nearly done. I goofed one border so I had to pick that out, but then it was done and I have a load of fabric to spare!! This was a "no brainer" for me to buy. These are my colours. I absolutely love turquoise. I love snowmen. It was meant to be mine.
It will hang in a place where we get to see it everyday.
The panto is a revised Snowdrift and unfortunately not available to purchase. The thread is though. It is an OMNI-V colour number 9002. It blended in beautifully on the flannel.
These are the corners. I didn't want half a snowman in any of them and to avoid this I used the final border fabric which carried out to the end.
This is the top part of the backing. There are skates and mitts and snowflakes and snowmen
I used this fabric for the second border and faced all the snowmen outwards and then used up the rest for the binding. I think I just may have a tiny bit left over.
The panel is from Henry Glass and it is called I Love Snow and that is true of me too. I was raised with snow and a winter without it is just bland! The nights are dark and I could go on and on.
Look at this selvedge. I love when I find a fabric that does something different. I should keep this. No idea why, I just should!!
This is staying at our house. I give away a lot but this is ours.
No one is going to talk me out of it.
No one!
I'll teach them how to make it if they really want it.
Now I will mention where I bought it,
The Quilt Store in Newmarket
I received great customer service and prompt! It was here within two days.
Pretty soon I will be able to just travel down the road in Aldershot and pick up what I need.
A "west" store is opening in my part of town.
Oh, this is going to be so dangerous.
Ooooops, update here.........
They are opening on Tuesday, November 28th.
