After the guild's Christmas party.....

I have been going through applique withdrawal, so when they asked for people to take blocks home and work on them for the guild's president's quilt and I saw that it was applique, I snatched them up. 
 
 
I am not sure of the layout of this quilt, but I love the colors. 
 
I, also, came away with a prize for our fabric bingo game (our fabric bingo "cards" were donated to the guild for charity quilts).
 
This is what I picked out from the pile of prizes.
 
 
The cover of this book sold it for me!  I think this quilt is on my bucket list....someday. 
 
Also, got the next two patterns for the seasonal calendar...Santa and a Snowman.  They BOTH have to be done by the next meeting.  Nothing like putting on the pressure what with the holidays.
 
Ok...off to do some applique
