These are beautiful. I think I saw a couple of these hanging in Hi Fashion Fabrics yesterday.

I added the hst border to the snowflakes, I set the baskets and pears on point with pieced alternate blocks, the butterfly quilt has pieced borders top and bottom only to give it a rectangular rather than square shape, I made 16 sunflower blocks (the patterns always showed 9 blocks) and sashed them, and lastly, I sized the ornaments down to 4 blocks with pieced sashing and cornerstones so that I could complete it at 11:45 pm on 12-31-10. They were all great fun to make!

Nice!!

I think I've just fallen in love with 'flip flops'. They are just the greatest. It opens up all sorts of possibilities. If only the fingers worked as quickly as the mind.
