    I just love them so much!! I can't wait to get to stitch them, but I guess I am going to look silly stitching them this spring/summer - LOL!! You have convinced me to stitch them separately instead of all on one piece of fabric!

    You're killing me here Karen! I was trying to resist these but now I've got to have them. I just love your basket of snowmen - thank you for inspiring us! Making these little pillows is great for all of us running out of wall space not to mention the savings not having to pay for framing.

    Such lovely finishes! I like snowmen designs. I wish it would snow here! The past 2 years we actually accumulated some snow but it was 72 today and I live on the eastern peninsula! Crazy. Your pictures are going to inspire me to become a better "photographer" . Best wishes!
