The Beginnings of Christmas Block #1


Today I started the Christmas Block that I mentioned in an earlier post. I hesitated to post a picture of a block that has only been fused down, but then decided that it might be fun to have a "before" and "after" picture of the block. I am doing the raw edge machine applique method on this quilt.

Monster report: I haven't worked on it today yet, but I still have the evening ahead of me! I may just have to quilt on it while I am watching one of my favorite TV shows - Dancing With The Stars! Of course I would be quilting while the commercials are on. We all know how long those commercials can be!
