things I am working on.

I bought a new 'Bareroots' pattern, like I needed another pattern. :o) But I couldn't resist. I love doing embroidery, so I just had to have it. The picture on the front of the pattern isn't the best so you can't really see how cute the embroidery is.



I've already started a few of the blocks.
Here is one that I finished, it's the 1st block on the quilt.

North Pole update... I started my 2nd block. It's the elf's recreations center.
And I finished the 'Marble Shop' .

That is going to be a great quilt when you get it done. And I love the elf recreation center and the marble shop. How are your Christmas presents coming? I'm slowly but surely getting there...very slowly.

Bareroots is my biggest weakness! Their pictures never really do the items any justice. Which pattern number is it? Now I'm going to have to go check out that one, too!

The embroidery is precious. And the Marble Shop came out GREAT! I look forward to seeing the elf's recreation center, too!
