Green/Red and White!

The snowmen received their carrots 
and the mystery item on the lathe yesterday is a Gnome! 
 I had fun making the beads for his nose and hat tip,
 well , every part, in fact! 
 I found the wood burning tools
 but not my assortment of tips
 so I am going to have to wait for that to happen.
As soon as it warmed up a bit, 
I went out and refilled the birdfeeders
 and then 'planted' the latest stepping stone.
I'm also changing out my hanging plants
 so I can put my blooming Christmas cactuses on display!
I also loaded up the Hunter Star 
 but now it will sit until I am inspired!  
I don't have a lot of time to languish over this decision!

  1. Hmmm...how about swirls, like a frosty winter wind blowing over the stars?! The circular lines would also play nicely over the geometric piecing. (Not that you asked for an opinion — ha!) The gnome and snowmen are really fun! David is on a huge woodworking kick now and just bought wood for a new project. He’d probably have a blast playing on the lathe! Lovely outdoor photos, too.

  4. (Mom, this is a test to try to figure out the problem with my commenting -- does this show up differently than it usually does?!)

  5. I think that the gnome is so cute. I was guessing a Christmas tree so I was completely wrong! Ha! The little carrot noses are so cute too. I would be afraid to touch the quilt. I have only hand quilted the ones I made. I am amazed at how many things you excell at. I seem to be mediocre at everything and master of none.
