I love being part of this swap... Thank you Cheryll for assigning me to make the Winter themed mini for Maria, who blogs at The Next Stage... Maria & I read each others blogs & I was so pleased to sew for her.
I almost didn't sign up for this swap, then very clever Michelle Ridgway inspired me with her little snowman, cute little fellow he is. Thank you Michelle, he's been a popular stitch on a few blogs...
The gumboot fabric was purchased last winter, & it was fun to use some of it for this:
I also sent Maria something to soothe dry winter hands, and some delicious winter drink sachets.
Glad you like it all Maria, it really was my pleasure to make for you!!

I have neglected my hexy flowers of late, but I do at least have this one to add to the pile...
thank you to Karen at Journey of A Quilter for hosting the Garden Party for One Flower Wednesday each week... yes I am a little late for this week!

"Bah, too many blogs for me..." |
I am loving today at home, it's been quite a busy week for me so far this week, & the wintery weather has me doing lots of blog-catch up & a few house chores too... stitching & a movie will be happening later...
seems the Site Manager can only look at so many blogs before losing interest!
