Santa makes an appearance in July!

I cut out fabric strips for my paper pieced Santa and Mrs. Santa blocks at my retreat last week but didn't get anything sewn on them.  I made one Santa today.  He was a tricky old man with a few directional prints making my brain work!  Not only was the background directional, but the words had to be all upright.  




I also completely quilted one Barnyard Quilt!  Ooh, that feels good!











I am linking up today with:

  2. Santa is too cute! Congrats on the great job getting the directional print in the 'right' direction. I usually avoid them and the headache they cause!

  3. Your Santa block is oh so cute. Love the fabrics used. I have done pieced blocks with word background and know it is a thought process you have to pay attention to.
