• How will I choose?

    I knew most of you are talented and good at applique, but I had no idea how many of you are such good designers!  The blocks coming in for my stocking contest are so good I’m going to have to have a committee to help me choose just 3.  Think about it, the stockings are fairly small, about the size of what you might hang on a tree, and the entire block is only 8″ finished!  But what this group has filled them with amazes me!
