Christmas in July Blog Hop + giveaway

Welcome to the last days of this fun blog hop. I love blog hops, and didn't think twice when Carol from Just let me quilt invited us to show our Christmas quilts and ideas, both old and new. This little lady will help me guide you through my blog post.


Actually I have not made many Christmas quilts, but I might give you some new ideas for small presents for family and friends. And I can show you some more fun things for the holidays. If you scroll to the bottom, there is a giveaway too. Enjoy.




I made this runner some years ago. You can find a tutorial for the star block I used here.

Here are some sweet presents I've made. So fun to give away to family and friends.







I wonder if my little helper has got more to show you? Oh yes, she says.


Here's the house of Santa. As you may know, he lives here in Norway.


Did I say giveaway? My home made Santa is showing you what you can win. If you tell me in a comment what pincushion you'd like, you will be in the draw for it + a 3" bundle of more than 40 squares with Christmas fabrics. I'll find a winner on Sunday.



Here is a list of my fellow bloggers giving you new ideas for Christmas today.

  43. What a cute assistant! Thank you for sharing your projects with us. I love stars and red, so that's my favorite pincushion as well. Happy Quilting!

  44. The sweet Christmas mouse makes a perfect hostess. Your home must be a fun place to visit at Christmas with all of your lovely decorations. I love the face on your Santa. I never knew he lived in Norway. Both of your pin cushions are lovely, but the red star is really special. I like your Christmas scene. Did you make all of the little people? Thank you for sharing all of your Christmas ideas.

  45. Your assistant is quite lovely!! I enjoyed seeing your projects. Thank you for the opportunity to win a pincushion! My favorite is the star - love stars!!

  46. Such beautiful things, and an elegant assistant. I really like the star blocks in the table runner and am going to have to figure out the easiest way to make those. Each of your ideas is a great gift, and your giveaway is so generous. Thank you for the chance to win. If I'm picked, I would like the red star scrappy pincushion, please. Either of them would be fine, really, as the little winter scene is also quite lovely. Thanks, again!
