    Default THE FWS PONY CLUB Quilt-Along Wk 12 Cake Stand & Christmas Tree Photo Page

    Two blocks done this week and here they are...I messed up with the xmas tree trunk section..it's upside down and staying that way. I also believe that xmas trees should be green with snowflakes all around!!

    Ok, now it's time for the candy parade !!

    Honchey ... looks like a luscious Cake on that Cake Stand .... and a perfect Christmas Tree! Of course, it should have snow flakes all around! (now you have me wondering if I can find some snow flake fabric!)

    Sharp and pointy all round! Beautiful!!!!

    Honchey, Great blocks!!

    I had some fabric issues due to operator error with the rotary cutter, so I had to improvise. (sigh)

    Beautiful blocks!
    Honchy - Your Cake Stand makes me think of tropical fruit. Hmmmm, a yummy way ta frost a cake! Oh & I love the snowflakes, dove, candles & all things Christmasey.
    Janie W - Is it a Red Velvet Cake? I love the hearts! Your Christmas tree looks like it is covered in snow!

    JanieW ... *gasp* operator error Now that never happens, does it?
    Whatever happened, nothing looks amiss ... and it looks like two more well pointed and beautiful blocks are made!!

    Anne, I love the bright colors you're using for PC, quite different from your FWS if I remember correctly. Love them both. I also switched the dark/light colors so I could have a green tree.
    Janie, first thing I thought of too was Red Velvet Cake--love the red and white. Great contrast in your Christmas tree block. Very pretty!

    Here are mine for this week:

    Honchey...I would never guess your tree trunk was upside down. Every point is perfect and it looks great. I noticed on your cake stand that you're teasing us with an extra dollap of frosting. Very original and again all of your points are perfect.

    JanieW...Snowy Christmas Tree with the perfect background. And the Cake Stand...Improvision is the very foundation of quilting. I had to look twice to see what it might have been. Great recovery!

    JanR....your Christmas tree looks so festive. Love the blues in the cake stand.

    All...wonderful eye candy for a Wednesday morning with coffee. I'm in the garden again today without a prospect of much time at the sewing. I'll be watching for more.

    Honchey, I can't see anything upside down either! Your blocks are great! On the left side there might be just a bit too much cake on the stand

    JanieR, lovely christmastree block! I had to look several times before I noticed the operator error!

    JanR, the blocks are beautiful!

    Here are mine for this week. The Christmas Tree block was the first block I made.
