I'll third that. Everyone's is so different and I could find wall space for them all. Rhonda - love the hearts!!!
Nanci, glad you like the snowmen. They have a special place in my heart so they go to special people.

Finished quilting the wall hanging last night. Tried some new ideas and not sure if I like it, but it is done and not ripping out the tiny stitches. Like how the backgrounds turned out in the blocks so that was good. Tried some new ideas there as well. Hope my secret partner does not mind that I experimented with the quilting. It looks good on the whole and lays flat. I am working on binding and will embroidery up a label tonight on the machine of course, no more handwork for awhile. Then will be mailed tomorrow.

I finished up last night at 9:15pm. I sewed down the hanging sleeve and the embroidered label this am and put in the mail box. It is on its way to my secret receipient. Whew, finished 9 last month and 21 more to go for year.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]373841[/ATTACH]I received the most wonderful wall hanging yesterday in the mail. Thank you kiffie2413 (Kandy). I have a throat/ear infection and was really down, but opened the mail and I was all smiles. I haven't ever done a Sue and Sam but now I have one!!! And the fabrics - wonderful. You used some heart fabrics and they always speak to my heart. Now I can't wait to start the next one. Thanks again Kandy!!!
