It's Day Five Of The Christmas In July Blog Hop

It's my day (along with several others) to share a little Christmas in July fun.
I feel so lucky to have such amazing and talented blogger friends...you all rock! 


Earlier in the month I made a quilt for a Riley Blake Designs blog tour.
I loved the fabric so much, I used the leftover fabric to make a table runner.


The fabric, Christmas Delivery, is cute and beautiful!


Here's the quilt I made earlier this month...


The quilt and runner patterns can be found in my Craftsy shop HERE.

Check out the other incredibly talented bloggers. You'll be wow'd for sure!
Be sure to visit them all and leave a sweet comment...it will be appreciated!

  12. Cute, cute, cute, Carol--as always. It has been fun seeing what is going on in bloggerland with this hop. THX for hosting it and the giveaway chance. Riley Blake fabric is the best!

  13. That is such a cute line of fabric; I can see why you love it. I thought some of the fabrics could easily be used other times of the year and no one would be the wiser. I'm in love with the red pickup and how you designed the table runner. Waaay baaaack when, Dad tied the branches of our tree together and then tied it to the top of the car. That trek to the woods to get our tree and getting it into the house, was a super time.

  27. The quilt is incredibly cute! My daughter and her husband would love that. His dad has an old truck like that, and they've decorated with some red truck prints. Not that I'd have time to make the quilt. LOL Maybe a table runner. Troy lost his dad in May.

  28. Carol, your work is always so beautiful! How clever to pose your quilt in a playground...it's perfect! I enjoyed many of the stops along this hop, but had so many fires in the oven this summer that I couldn't participate. I'd love to join in on the house hop, if you still have room! duchick at gmail dot com

  40. Your quilt and your tablerunner are fabulous. You always have interesting projects. This hops has been phenomenal. Two of my grandchildren are coming Sunday afternoon and staying until Tuesday evening while Dada goes to St. Louis to see his dream team the Cardinals play baseball. So, I found what may be a project for them while they are here. They always want to help cook and do whatever they can. My grandson in 12 and my granddaughter just turned 5. She may be a little young to do much on Tuna's wonderful directions for a fleece blanket and I bet she can still supervise. I think they will have a ball doing this. Their stepsister will have to make one the next time she comes. They all get along well and yet there is still a sibling rivalry. Thanks for a great hop and I have had a wonderful time celebrating. To you and all the participants and readers - Merry Christmas in July. susan dot dietrich at cox dot net
