Another header picture change. I finished the small quilt yesterday evening.
The pattern I used is called "Comfort and Joy" and is by Cheri Saffiote-Payne. It went together quickly and I think it will make a nice holiday quilt.
I received a package from Mary of "Quilt Hollow" yesterday. A surprise gift for the holiday season.
I am delighted with the little quilt. It has vintage look fabrics and my style! I think it is something that I can display year round and I plan on doing that. I plan on putting it on an end table by the sofa in the family room. Mary did a really nice quilting design on the quilt. She is the so good at picking an appropriate machine quilting design and executing it on her quilts. I am so thankful to have her as such a good friend even though we have never met in person. Mary enclosed a cute, cute snowman card which I forgot to take a picture of. And two packages I can't open until January.
I hope you have a wonderful day. I plan on doing some sewing. So much to choose from but you can bet it will be something with a holiday theme.

Mary's little minis are always gorgeous and soooo well done. Enjoy them both, my friend.
