Something I hardly ever do...plus, winner announcement

First...the contest winners!

Helene from 25 Reasons, and Mama Sparks...ladies, if you will email (cherryhousequilts at gmail dot com) me your addresses, I will get your presents to you! 

Thank you to everyone that left a comment - I was moved by all the wonderful things you have to be grateful for...families, pets, the weather, your countries, freedom, jobs...so much to give thanks for!  Please know that I sincerely, am thankful to each of you, for your kindness, warm wishes, and support. 

Here's a little project that I wanted to share...I am such a sucker for wool at garage sales, and thrift stores.  I love to buy wool, and felt (or full) it, and make little things.  Here's a little quiltlet (is that a word?) that I made for my Mom as a thank you.  I did lots of embroidery, and handwork, something I hardly ever do anymore; but here it is...

 

Check out the button hole from the men's suit...I liked it, so I included it!

Have a great week sweet friends,

Cherri
