Harrington and Hannah BOM Kits

"Hannah wake up! Mama wants us to talk about the kits for the Harrington and Hannah Block of the Month coming on January 15."

"She wants us to talk about it?"

"Yes. She wants us to say that each month will be a different block featuring you and me doing something kind, giving and in the spirit of friendship. There will be wool applique, stitching and patchwork. The designs will be FREE, but we have kits of

Valdani 3 Strand Floss

Wool Felt

and Cotton Fabric

available for purchase in our Shop now.

Here's a sneaky peeky of the first block before Mama did the stitching on it. Remember, it will be available on January 15th and then each new block will be released on the 15th of every month. Mama hopes we have lots of friends and followers stitching along with us. It's going to be a really fun quilt to make."

"Well Harrington, I think you did a great job explaining everything. Now that our work is done, let's just hang out here for the rest of the day."

xx, Harrington and Hannah

My Wish for you.

David and I moved into our home December 4th 2001. It has only taken me ten years to make us some stockings for the mantel! Oye!

I'm pretty pleased with how they turned out. I even have a few surprises to put in David's! Sneaky, sneaky, sneaky! Shhhhh. ;)

And now a big congratulations to our friend, Sharon of Vrooman's Quilts! You are the winner of our final giveaway for 2011! Woo hoo! (I think I have your address Sharon, but send it to me anyway as I don't want your prize to get lost)

Pressies, a new BFF and Pairing

Well hi there! How's your week going so far? It's all good around these parts. :) In fact, I want to share a few pressies I recently received!

First is this sweet bunny! My stitching assistant, April in Alabama made this for me! She stitches for me as well as other designers like Brenda Gervais! In fact, this is Brenda's pattern! I looooooooove it! Thanks so much April. I still can't believe how much you get done and how gorgeous your work is. Have I told ya I love ya? :) :) :)

Next, is this handsome lad, Peter Rabbit. I purchased him from my friend, Wendy at Ravenwood Whimzies. I saw him on her blog a while back and just had to have him! Ya'll know how much I love handmade things. Well, my sister visited me a few weeks ago and spotted him on the chair in my bedroom. She snatched him up quicker than all get out and exclaimed "I loooooooooove him!" I had to keep checking her bags to make sure she didn't steal him! Naughty, naughty, naughty!

After she left, I contacted Wendy to see if I could get another one and well, here he is.

This Peter Rabbit is in brown. Perfect! He is a my sister's Christmas gift. You may be saying, "Shell, what if she see's this on your blog?" To that I say Ha! Let her see it! Now she has to suffer and wait until Christmas to get her sweet bunny! That's what she get's for trying to steal mine! Wuuuaahhhaaaaaaa.  ;) hee,hee,hee. (she'll probably get him early as she knows I get excited over giving presents and can't help myself. I'm such a sucker!)

Wendy also included this adorable pumpkin that smells oh so wonderful. Not sure, but thinking I'm keeping it for me. ;)

Next, let's look at our BFF (bundle of fun felt) this week! Aren't these colors sweet!?! I just got them in the other day and sat there petting them for like an hour! I need 15 more of me to get all my projects done! Dag!

Then, I paired them with these floss colors. Ooooooooooo! Yep, lovin' that too! You can get some for yourself in my Shop. Let me know what you make with them! I would love to show your creations here on my blog! How cool would that be!

Well, have a wonderful day. Be good....ummm...nope be naughty... It's just way more fun! Oh and don't forget to sign up for all the giveaways! Scroll down to the post below!

xx your friend,
