Winter Flurries

Last year, I decided to make "Winter Flurries", a mystery quilt from https://fortworthfabricstudio.com/.  At first I was a little hesitant as I am not a big fan of using black with Christmas.  But, it didn't take me long to fall in love with the fabrics.  I even purchased more of the black to be used in some other projects.

I really like how the black pieces seem to "pop" and enhance the other colors of fabric.  It now adorns my kitchen table.

Years ago, when I had my business, I made these trees and sold them in a set of Five.  They were a very popular item and took quite a bit of time to sew and stuff.  Because of the time involved, I only kept them available for about a year. 

Every year I can't wait to get them out and find a new spot in my home for them.  They make me happy whenever I look at them and also bring back memories of a earlier time in my life.

    I agree with you Nola, the black does pop and help show off the designin your flurries quilt! Those trees are very cute.

    I do love those items that bring back treasured memories. I love all your handiwork. If you were still making and selling, I'd be by.
    Blessings and hugs!
