Once in awhile I do

write a column on a Monday.  Only for important reasons mind you and I thought this was in the "sort of" category.

I follow Buttermilk Basin on Facebook and my plan is some day to get into a bit more wool appliqué.  Note the word someday!! You can find them here:  https://www.facebook.com/buttermilkbasin/

Right now they are offering 12 Days of Christmas Sew-a-Long on their website.

Buttermilk Basin

When you go on the website  look across the row until you find 

shop online

Click on that

then

click on

12 Days of Christmas Sew-a-Long

S.c.r.o.l.l down 

or better yet read until you get there

and then you can click on the links to the pattern offered for the day

AND

the puzzle piece that is also being offered.

You could send away to Minnesota and get the kits or just use what you have at home.  I'm choosing the later and using what I have.  A mini stash buster if you will.

This is my first block done with left-overs from the big quilt

oh

and don't forget to check out the daily recipe.

Catch up while you can.

They don't take long to make.

While I frittered around with my sewing, the farmer was out putting up our lights.

We don't decorate anywhere near as much as we used to.  It's a senior citizen thing.
