New

Christmas is over for another year so it is time for a different quilt in the header. As it's almost the New Year, I thought my new quilt would suit the occasion.

We spent Christmas with my DIL's family and had a lovely meal and great company. Melbourne suffered a tremendous storm in the afternoon with golf ball size hailstones and my car is peppered with dents. Others had windows smashed and homes flooded so I got off lightly.

Wishing all who visit my blog a Happy, Healthy and Safe New Year.

    Wishing the same to you, Dorothy! Glad you came off with only the car damage, and nothing worse.

    I started drooling as soon as your header picture came up on the computer screen. A beauty. I imagine it took you a good while to make that quilt.

    We have never had hail stones that big, luckily.
    We are getting gusty winds and some rain, no snow yet.

    So sorry for the damage to your car, but happy that you did not suffer further harm! I saw it in the news here in Holland and thought of you!
    Wish you better weather for the coming week, greetings

    I do love that header quilt. I have the pattern for the middle in an old Quilt Mania mag. I have this on my lovely long list of quilts to do

    Love the new header quilt. Auntie Green is one of my favorites but I will have to content myself with my version from the Quilt Mania magazine.

    Auntie Green is on my "to do" list. I hope mine is even half as beautiful as yours when I get around to it
