Ok, can you believe it's parade time again? I wanted to thank everyone who is participating in Le Petite!
You all did amazing projects... they were all so fun to see! So, now Sherri and I get to share them all with you!
But first, we wanted to give you a little news flash!
We changed our minds, at the last minute, for our next project.
We thought we would take pity on our Le Petite group...
with all of the holiday hustle and bustle upon us.
We are going to save our December pick of Mon Ami by Carrie Nelson until January.
Quilt Taffy already has kits available for this project, in case you want one and want to put it under your tree for Christmas, from you to... you!
So that's right... you are getting a heads up!
For our next project we are going to go with
So, the pattern is free... and the fabric requirements are minimal... and it's quick and easy and could even possibly be made as a Christmas gift... or even for yourself, in time for the holiday!
This is Prairie Point Christmas
This is the original quilt by Cara Wilson from the Moda Bake Shop site.
Do you remember the one I made last week or so?
This is really fast and fun... Cara just posted a about this quilt
and showed a group with their completed tops! You might want to check it out!
But now, lets see the Butter Churn Quilts!
The pattern was by Sherri Falls of This and That patterns.
First we have...
Linda from the Quilted Pineapple made her version of Butter Churn from the Clermont Farms
fabric group by Minick and Simpson.
This version of Butter Churn was made by Shelley, at Poplun blog, she used the Awesome group by Sandy Gervais.
It amazes me how different these can look!
Mary on Lake Pulaski made this beautiful Butter Churn
out of Lumiere de Noel by French General. It looks so Spring-y, not
what I would think by the name of the fabric line... did I mention I love it???

Naomi made her Butter Churn from the Summer's End group from Kansas Troubles.
She, is still deciding on adding the borders. It looks pretty cute the way it is!

Sandie crazy bout quilts made her Butter Churn, and gave it a whole new look! I love the placement of the red blocks and how they stand out with the center churn dash blocks!
Sandy F made a great version of this quilt by using strong contrast fabrics. Everything just pops!
She used fabrics with snowmen and some with snowflakes from her stash.
Here is Butter Churn in retro colors made by "Messy Karen"...
I love this color combo!

Yay! I love them all! (We have a couple of duplicates, though)! I love your Christmas tree!
Love the parade! There are some beautiful Butter Churns! Thanks for including me as a new member :) I can't wait to get started on the Christmas Tree!!
Life got in the way this month, but I hope to participate in the new year. I love everyone's quilts and all the different fabrics used. Thanks for the parade.
All these quilter's did a fantastic job! Gosh so difficult picking out a favorite..just when I think I have one selected I scroll to find yet another beauty! Well done!!
What an amazing Parade!
Yay! I've had the "Christmas Tree Hanging" on my wish list since it came out.
All the "Butter Churn" projects are beautiful! I love how the different fabrics make it tough to tell that they're all the same pattern. Beautiful job everyone!!
Sinta, thanks so much for you and Sherri putting this together! I'm just having too much fun with this! All the quilts are gorgeous and unique. Beautiful parade!
Wow Sinta, what a wonderful parade! I enjoyed every one of the completed projects. It's always so fun to see the different looks from the same pattern. You chose a great pattern!
This was such a fun pattern! Thanks for organizing Le petite Sinta and Sherri!
Well Done Ladies!
Lovely lovely Le Petite quilts to be seen here too! They are really so inspiring!
And, love the project you and Sherri chose for December! Better get my scraps together and start making those points!
Have a lovely day. We're 'enjoying' the snow.
I love this parade, too! It's always fun to see the different looks!
Oh, it never stops to amaze me how much difference the choice of fabric makes - the same pattern and all the quilts turn out so different. Thank you for the beautiful parade!
Oh, such clever and talented quilters...all of those Butter Churn quilts are delightful. And your little Christmas tree is adorable, too!
XOXO,
Cyndi
