A Snowman Invasion

Design Wall Tuesday

A month ago I started playing Handel's Messiah and getting to work on Christmas gifts.  The party season has started so I can begin showing the finished products.  I used several blocks from a pattern by Bunny Hill Designs to make quilted cards this year.

I noticed there is a new version available on Bunny Hill Designs website. Since these were going to friends at the university where I work I incorporated our school colors; purple and gold.

Here they are ready for embellishing...

I quilted around each snowman and added arms and other details with my sewing machine so they went pretty quickly.  The eyes, buttons and snow I were added using seed beads.

I wanted these little quilts to be able to stand on their own so I adhered a piece of folded cardstock to the backs using fusible interfacing.

These were so much fun to make I am having a hard time moving on to other projects-I keep looking at more ideas for snowmen.  I did come across free patterns on Bunny Hill Designs page for a snowman a month!  I do not know how long the patterns will be available but for now this link works...​https://bunnyhilldesigns.com/index.php/free-patterns.html
