Good Morning! May I present my version of Holiday Lane. As soon as I saw the wonderful pattern that was going to be the focus of this hop, I fell in love with it. Jill Finley of Jillily Studio Designs provided it. I converted it to a wallhanging. Candycane Lane is its name.
When we lived in Roselle, there was a street block near us that outdid itself for the holidays. All the homes on both sides of the street decorated to the nine's. It drew so many people to see it that the police had to set a route for cars to drive through to see it. It was so much fun to drive by and see what the homes had added from one year to the next.
| The houses and borders are machine stitched and quilted. All of the door, trees, windows are stitched by hand and made with wool. I then added all the dodads. |
| I love to add fun things to some of my quilts. This is one of them. |
I hope you have enjoyed seeing how I worked with the pattern. Jill did a great job on providing this pattern. It was clear and easy to follow. Pauline has been a wonderful cheerleader. Madame Samm is the ultimate cheerleader. Visit her site for the top picks of the day. Keep on hopping! There are going to be a lot of great ideas. Have a great Day Happy Thanksgiving. Here is the lineup for today and the rest of the hop. N
