Many, many years ago in a little far away country lived a girl who oftenly went to movie with her daddy to watch movies about wild, wild west. In these movies she saw wonderful bed blankets made from many colorful small pieces of fabrics. And of course, she wanted to have one, but in her far, far away country no one knows how to make it. Then, some decades later clever men invented internet and our little girl (being granny in meantime) finally learned how to make a quilt. From many scraps , in all the wonderful colours in the world.

FLOWERS IN THE SNOW

I'm back with my scrapy flowers;  I've miscalculated needed flowers and HOPE these are the last two. I couldn't resist to picture them in the snow,  aren't they lovely.

                                    

 Yes, winter came in all his beauty with enough snow to enjoy in it and without major problems yet.



Could you believe that these pics were taken just a week ago? So far we had very strange winter , but now everything is just it has to be.


                                  


Somehow I forgot to show  you pictures of my Christmas quilts.
They are all made with same block - Under the mistletoe,  look what a  different layout could do. Fabrics are pretty much the same :  reds,  greens and neutrals with gold.
