Some of my Splendid Sampler blocks are embroidered and I save them for very special people.
Miss Taylor is one of my special people!
Happy Birthday Taylor

Happy Birthday Kathryn

It seems by the time my Christmas sewing is done I’m ready for something different. This is the second year in a row that Kathryn has received a cross-stitched card for her birthday.
The bookmark kit was a gift from Diane – she knew how much I loved pansies. It was Pat’s idea to add her initials to the top.

When birthdays happen in December I try to find a card that doesn’t have a Christmas theme. Although my mind itched to do this in Christmas fabric because it was on my cutting table, I’m glad I found another way.
Paper piecing is my favourite method for making cards; you can get (most times) perfect lines and points.
I kept with simple straight-line quilting.
Happy Birthday Dylan

What could be a better design for my grandson?
The X’s and O’s are for the hugs and kisses I miss because I live away from him. The name of the block says it all!
