Glad Tidings and Barnyard Christmas freebie

It is a fabulous rainy Friday here in the holler. It is supposed to rain for the next two days. In fact , Saturday supposed to be downright nasty with chances of wind gusts.  Rainy days means it is a great time to hunker down in the quilt room and enjoy fabric , needle and thread. Don't you think?  

Last Friday began Pam Buda's of Heartspun Quilts Glad Tidings  Sew Along .  Part 1 was posted Dec. 3, 2021.

 

And in no time flat, I had the main units stitched up. 

Part 2 of the sew along will be posted today. But guess what? 

I went ahead and sewed my little quilt up!😀🧵 It was such a quick and enjoyable quilt to work on.  I alternated my reds and greens compared to Pam's.

              

Next week perhaps I will spend my time quilting. it. 

Last night, I did a little finishing on another Barnyard Christmas ornament. 

        

This one is called Christmas Stack . 

              

I have been wanting to try to stitch a horse  for the Barnyard series for so long.

 I am going to name this horse Marjorie after my daughter's horse that she had for a very short time. 

 A teeny little sheep and pig is stacked on the horse's back. So cute.

If you would like to stitch this little piece , please check out the links below . 

Many of you know , but I always like to leave this little disclaimer.  

I stitch my little designs for fun and to decorate my home. I feel very blessed by this community and love sharing my little charts, but I am not a professional designer. And I do not have professional software. Thank you for understanding that I  have to put each page on separate pdf downloads because of the devices I use. I apologize for that.  And I am always grateful for your kind encouragement , your visits, and stitching my little designs.
