Tis the Season

I have spent this afternoon putting my borders onto my stitched blocks for my Tis the Season quilt!  The camera died and is now charging but I did take some photos along the way to share and will hopefully be able to take more and download for tomorrow!  


I think this is my favourite!  


I have enjoyed stitching with the variegated red DMC thread and am looking forward to having this quilted (by someone else) so I can make a start on "My Favourite Things" quilt by Anni Downs!!    I'm nearly there Chooky!!!!   And I'm loving seeing everyone's progress on that !!!
