Stocking treats block eleven
Block eleven was designed by our third place winner from the Bunny Hill/ Moda design contest, Lori Weigel! This cute little snowman, reaching for a Christmas ornament, won her third place. And of course, her win gave all of us a chance to make this adorable block! Block Eleven Here’s block eleven in my Sugar Plum Christmas fabric… Here’s Lori’s original block that she submitted for the contest… I love how she’s used my ornament fabric to fussy cut her ornament. Choose your favorite ornament, and you can do the same thing! Or, if you’re using a different material just use a tiny print for your ornament. We’ve added…

stocking treats block ten
It wouldn’t be Christmas without a poinsettia or two. These beautiful flowers fill the season with color, beauty and always remind me of Christmas. I had to include one in our stocking quilt! Block ten is a simple block, but sometimes it’s good to have simple! You should be able to finish this one quickly. Don’t worry if your points don’t meet in the center in absolute perfection because you’ll be sewing 3 buttons to the center after your quilting is complete. Block Ten Here’s block ten in my Sugar Plum Christmas fabric. This was actually the first block I designed for this quilt. It wasn’t until I had all the…

There’s still plenty of time to finish and if you can’t finish this year, put it on your schedule for next year. I’ll be back next week with block number ten. Hugs, Anne

Stocking Treats block eight
Block number eight is from Julie Zaloudek, the second place winner in our Bunny Hill/Moda design contest! Block Eight Julie’s design is the reason you have that tiny ric rac in your embellishment kit! When I saw how she had used it in her design I knew we had to duplicate it. She’s stitched around the ric rac with red embroidery floss for the cutest accent. Here’s her block added to our quilt… And here it is duplicated in our fabric, Sugar Plum Christmas… Julie’s original design had a fabric square behind the stocking. I LOVED the look it added and it would be darling for an individual project. She accented the…
