I've started on the Snowmen BOM that I am doing. It's a wool on cotton BOM and pretty easy so far. I've not worked on wool before so this is interesting. They say to use a fusible on it but I've found that I have to press down a lot harder in order for it to stick. We'll see if get better at it. Here is one of the blocks.
I also managed to get the mini block of the month from The Quilt Pattern Magazine done. It is a tie and I wanted to give it a little traditional look. All black didn't work out well though so I used the same material that I used for the Moonshine Serenade. That too didn't look right but the third time WAS the charm. I reversed the material and then it showed up nicely. The reversed side showed more of the silver/grey swirls in the fabric and now I am happy with it.
Well that's it for this short break. Time to get back to stitching. Have a great day everybody.
