Christmas Town Sampler



I have been wanting to make a Christmas quilt.  When I saw Christmas Town Sampler on Denise Russart's blog (block of the month/mystery/blog hop)  I just couldn't resisit.  The first clues were posted the first Saturday in July.  I am currently caught up (until the first Saturday in August), so hopefully I'll stay that way. 
Applique' Block
This block was designed by Sheryl Till.  I still have to add a bead for the eye on the dove but decided to wait until after the quilt is quilted.
Pieced Block
 This block was designed by Judy Laquidara.  I really liked how this one turned out.

Paper Pieced Block
 This block was designed by Susan Neves.  The title of the block is The Three Trees.  You need to check out the story on her blog.

Manor House Block
This block was designed by Denise Russart.  The houses go in the border all around the quilt.  I had to make eight of these.  I could have made them all different but decided to make these all the same.  I may change my mind on the next one...who knows? 

It's not too late if you decide to join in.  Are you game????
