Welcome to my day on the 12 Days of Christmas in July blog hop Are you having fun hopping to all the other participants blogs? There is much to see and this is only the second day of the hop!! And don't forget Sarah is posting steps for the QAL each day. This is my second year of participating in the hop, I love doing it!
Meet The Snow Dudes! I am releasing this brand new pattern in my Craftsy store which you can find HERE. Snowmen are a real love for me, having made many over the years. They are so fun to decorate with for the Holidays since you can leave them up for a few months as they double as winter decor also!
Wouldn't you love to have these cuties adorning your table during the Holidays. It measures 19 1/2" by 41 1/2". They are easy to make with quilting cottons and felt that you could whip up a few as gifts also.
This is another one I made last year using a different snowflake. I love using a medium grey as a background for my snowman projects as it sets off the white snowmen so well. A wonderful blue or red would work too!
Remember yesterday I mentioned a give away also. You can read all the details on Sarah's blog. When you are commenting remember that if you are a no reply blogger to leave your email addy so you can be contacted if you win! This is open to international bloggers also!

I love snowmen and this is surly another winner Vicki. So cute, and I never think of using a grey background on a Chryproject but it does work great with the white. Love it.
ReplyDeleteThat is sooooooooooo adorable!
ReplyDeleteThe grey is a wonderful choice, table runners are always fun to make, and this one is too. Another super blog hop, I have to get ready for my day on 22nd.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing all of the Christmas projects. Thanks for participating.
ReplyDeleteToo cute, I would make this one for sure. Jmikebalou (at) aol (dot) com
ReplyDeleteWhat a darling table runner. I love the fabric you used for the background. Looks like swirling snow! Thanks for participating and sharing. I know it's a lot of work and appreciate it!
ReplyDeletewow! What a fun table runner! I might make it in non-Christmassy fabrics to use in winter here (which is still short sleeve weather! hahha) as CHristmas in the subtropics would have melted snowmen!
ReplyDeleteLove your new pattern - snowmen are always so much fun! a(dot)haun(at)sbcglobal(dot)net

ReplyDeleteI agree with you about the grey
ReplyDeleteWhat a great pattern, very classic! I was just remembering how much my mom loved snowmen as a wintry motif, which is probably why I like to decorate with them so much. I'll be putting your pattern on my shopping list because you're right, I could definitely use that table runner all winter long.
ReplyDeleteToo cute!
ReplyDeleteSnow Dudes is awesome! I love snowmen too. Thanks!
ReplyDeletePlease click on the delaineelliott above for my email link.
Cute!
ReplyDeleteI love your snowmen. I also like winter quilts because they can be out longer.
ReplyDeleteWow...I had to scroll WAYYY down through tons of nice compliments before I could say "YAY YOU!!" Such darling ideas & so beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteNot only does that beautiful grey background allow the white to shine but it also gives enough contrast for the black hats to show up nicely. Smart!!
I have a large snowman collection and I do leave them out all winter. Like the gray background on your runners. Sort of like a stormy winter night sky.
ReplyDeletePat
Snowmen are my January decorations, and these little guys are adorable! I think I'll have to practice my appliqué skills and try them out. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWho doesn't like snowmen - especially if there is none of the cold wet stuff around!
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI love how much personality your snowmen have Vicki!

I love the snow dudes! Snowmen just seem to have a bit of extra something that tugs at your heart, don't they? Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing. I love your snowmen
ReplyDeleteToo cute!
ReplyDeleteVery nice design!
ReplyDeleteThe snowman runner made me smile. Too cute!
ReplyDeleteLove the personality in those snowmen. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love snowmen. When I was a child, a snowman was always in order to be made. Now we don't usually get enough snow. That's the problem with moving. The great thing is we can have a snowman or more than one with a tablerunner or a quilt. I adore the pattern. You have hit the jackpot with this pattern. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Vicki!
ReplyDeleteI have always wondered to make a directional pattern work on a table runner. What a great idea you had on yours. It can be viewed perfectly from both sides.
ReplyDeleteLove your table runner. Just darling. Thanks
