Today we are celebrating Christmas in July!
Benartex recently contacted me and asked me if I would be interested in participating in their Christmas in July blog hop. I quickly chose the whimsical
.
I received the fat quarter bundle which also includes a panel filled with lots of great designs to inspire various projects. I love the warm colors and the lodge feel to these prints.
I instantly thought of my sister and her country home. She loves to decorate for the holidays so I made her a new pillow cover for the 16 x 38" pillow she keeps on a bench in her entry way.
I loved the moose panel and used it as the central design. Then it was just a matter of adding in pieces of all the great prints to fill the body of the pillow. I decided to add a scrappy flange to give the pillow an added detail. I know she is going to love it!
If you would like a chance at winning your own fat quarter bundle of A Moose for Christmas collection by Cheryl Haynes, leave a comment on my blog telling me how you like to decorate for the holidays. Do you go all out (like my sister) or are you a "Bah Humbug" (like me)? Or do you find yourself somewhere in between...
I will be randomly choosing a winner Sunday the 30th after 5 pm PST. The bundle will be coming directly from Benartex and is only open to US residents.
For more chances to see some of the other lovely Christmas collections being featured by Benartex, you can visit their Sew in Love website.
