Today is my day in the Holiday Lane Blog Hop!
A big thanks to Mdm. Samm of Sew We Quilt,
& Pauline of Quilt-n-Queen for hosting this fun hop,
and to Jill of Jillily Studio for sharing her wonderful pillow pattern!
This is my version of the Holiday Lane Pillow
I played with a lot of fabrics,
but just had to use this fun print by Tula Givens
from her Christmas Pageant line
I used it for the back of the pillow
and some of the little guys made it to the front
in the windows and some of the doors
This little dog is my favorite
and the little mouse is sooo cute!
love him to!!!
...there's a mouse in the house, lol!
I used Moda Minky for the snow
and Superior's Silver Metallic thread...
probably the best metallic thread I've ever used
with only one breakage in the whole project...
....and that's because I was sewing too fast!
I had a great time working on this project!
