I hope you have already ordered your book and fabric so that you can play along with my Tell Me A Story Holiday sewalong for a chance at winning some great prizes! All the details can be found here. If not, you still have plenty of time!
Today I am sharing my second finished pillow.
I’ve been sharing all the blocks that went into the pillow on Instagram and here is a round up with all their stories!
Fenwick the elf found the most perfect tree in all the forest for his Christmas tree. With great pride, he set the star on top!
This polar bear searched the forest floor for a perfect flower, untouched by frost, to give to his beloved. But will she come?
Bobby is staring at that bike, willing it to be under the tree on Christmas morning. His dreams are not full of sugar plums, but rather, tires!
The little elf held up his snowman chain and told his class, “Inspiration is everywhere!”
I let my Instagram followers make up stories for this one. What a fun idea that turned out to be! To read the stories on IG, just look for my photostream @duringquietime. After that, I took a few names and sent a few direct messages and here are some more stories that they wrote for me:
@kidgiddy volunteered to write the story for this block: The little reindeer were lost in the peppermint forest. Even Rudolph was a bit concerned…until Vixen came along and reminded him that his nose could help them find their way home.
@quiltyobsession wrote the story for this block: Lola couldn’t wait until she was old enough to sing in the elf choir like her big sister Lily. For now, she is just happy that she gets to ring the bell.
@ tracybugcreative wrote: Noelle was often seen chatting alone with the little birds. This one she names “Blue-ish.” They met daily so Noelle could teach Blue-ish new songs. Today, everyone was astonished when we heard Noelle singing Jingle Bells and Blue-ish echoed back a lovely refrain. Everyone but Noelle!
Margaret skated around the frozen pond trying to catch the flakes of snow as they fell.
I hope you have been enjoying this sewalong! Remember, you can play along and enter to win these great prizes!
