Henry Glass Designers Holiday Project Parade - Dec. 1



Today is the first day of the Henry Glass Designer's Christmas Project Parade.  We get to be one of the first hostesses.    We hope to make some new friends today (you can "friend" us on Facebook too!).  Post a comment with a holiday wish and you can win an  autographed copy of our book Patriotic Little Quilts.  We will randomly pick someone tomorrow night.  (You must have an email address associated with your posting ID so that we can contact you)

Warm winter wishes from Little Quilts! How exciting to be a part of the Henry Glass Holiday Designer Project Parade. We are pretty new to the blogging scene, but we are "players" and although some of the computer world races past us faster than we can catch on, we are so lucky to have elves in the workshop that help us with these exciting ways to visit you. Almost twenty years ago (can it be that long?), we put our ideas in the book...."Little Quilts All Through The House", published by Martingale & Company. The book is still being printed and enjoyed around the world. We joke that our high school picture is in the front. Decorating a home with small quilts was our passion. Several books followed along with our own line of patterns, kits and booklets. We are delighted to be a part of the design team of Henry Glass. Our fabrics are vintage designs which are perfect for making little and big quilts with a traditional look.



So here it is...that pedal to the metal time of the year - sewing for gift giving and decorating our home. This is where we come in. Making little quilts as gifts is a great idea and take it from us, it gets the same response as a king size quilt from the person who receives it! Decorating with little quilts is easy. Use them on the table under a centerpiece; hang them on a peg at the door; place one in a basket holding small packages; hang it on the wall; drape it over the back of a chair or hang it on the front door.


These are just a few of the things you can do to cozy up your holiday decorating. Whatever you do, enjoy the process as much as the end results. Quilting can be a way to calm down during these busy days.


The three of us are always trying to make the holidays fun and special for our families. Our children are grown and many live far away, but they still look for the familiar traditions we have established when they come home. Now we have grandchildren to add to our circle and that brings a new level of joy to our gatherings. Like you, we always want more time to create and the days get gobbled up with all the activities of the season. Have you thought of making small quilted flags to hang on the tree? Perhaps you or a friend has someone in the service. This would be a great last minute gift for them and you.


Our project for the Henry Glass Designer Blog Hop is something you can do with your family; your quilting friends; or simply by yourself as you watch "It's A Wonderful Life".  Each time a bell rings, an ANGEL (hint, the secret word) gets it's wings.

We share the day with our Henry Glass designer friends;

Linda Lum DeBono  http://www.lindalumdebono.blogspot.com/



and Heather Mulder Peterson  http://www.ankastreasures.wordpress.com/ 

Hop on over to their websites and see what free project they have for you. Ours is in the post below.
Each designer has a secret word included in their blogging for you to find, collect and then enter after the last day, on the Henry Glass blog. List each secret word in your comment for a chance to win a gift from each of the designers AND a collection of current Henry Glass fabrics. You must enter by Dec. 9th at 8PM EST. Yippee!

Thanks for sharing today.

I'm so thankful for all I've been blessed with, that everything else is just a bonus!

robin said...

My holiday wish - that in the business of the season, many would remember the purpose of Christ's coming as a babe in the first place - because we needed a Saviour!
I like the idea of little quilts - I'm new to quilting, so smaller projects don't seem so scary as a big quilt! Thanks! :o)

Carrie P. said...

Wow, that is awesome that you have been creating quilts for so many years.
I have checked the book out from our public library many times.

Susie said...

I love your blog. I've been a follower for a while and a fan on FB too. I just love "little" quilts. Must be my ADD or something because little quilts are perfect for me! Haha!

My holiday wish is simple and probably one that many have made lately. I just wish that I could make Christmas special for my girls (ages 9 and 3yr old twins). As it stands now, things are looking very bleak. So, my wish is really something along the lines of not disappointing my girls. They've had enough of that the past few months.

Sherry said...

Merry Christmas to all three of you and your families. I am looking forward to decorating for Christmas in the next few days. I love the idea of the Twinkle Fabric Garland, thanks for sharing the fun project.

Michelle said...

What a cute idea! I have fabric wreaths, so it only makes sense that I use a fabric garland!

Michelle said...

I really like all of your Saturday Sampler blocks and I must get a copy of your book. I want to make quilt-inspired gifts for people without making a full quilt for everyone I know. I wish I had that kind of time and money. lol I think little quilts would be just perfect.

VickiT said...

What a great little project and one that can get the little ones involved in helping to make it. Wonderful time of the year to have them help because they love helping with anything. This would make an adorable little garland for the tree.

I love these little blog hop type things because I'm always finding new places I've never been. Your blog is one of those I've never seen so this is great because I love what I've seen so far and I just signed up for your newsletters.

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to every one of you and your families.

I wish you love, joy, peace and patience for this holiday time. I think the fourth one is probably the one needed the most at this time of year. Thank you for the Twinkle Garland; it is really cute. I have one of your older Little Quilt patterns - Angels. I use it at least once every year for some Christmas present - tea towels, gift bag, apron, etc.

great idea for dressing up the mantle .. ours always seems to be lacking something and this might just give it that sparkle it needs! Thanks for participating in this blog hop .. it is fun so far!

Liz said...

What a fun way to collect new, simple projects for Christmas. I'M looking forward to visiting the other designer's blogs.

Your little quilts are fun and easy to decorate with giving a little pop of color here and there.
I follow your blog and thanks for sharing your great light and fabric garland with us - it's darling! Happy Holidays!

I'm glad I found your blog-looking forward to reading it regularly!! This blog hop has gotten me into the Christmas spirit-it's so fun! I wish all of you a blessed and fun-filled Christmas season! Thanks for your Twinkle Garland pattern!

Oh my I love the garland. I need to print a copy of this one and save it to make with my grandchildren. They will love it!! and we'll keep it forever. My Christmas wish, oh how I wish my Dad were here with us this year to share the holiday. I lost my Dad in March of this year and I miss him terribly. I know that his spirit will be with us, and I'll see him again someday; in the meantime we'll celebrate the gifts he gave us and carry on.

Aside from the usual Peace on Earth and health for my family I will go back to a simpler time and wish for lots of SNOW on Christmas morning :) BTW, Little Quilts was one of the first quilting books I bought!

Hi Little Quilt Ladies! I am pretty new to quilting and this is the first time I've heard of you, but I love your blog and am signing up as a follower! I like the idea of using small quilts as gifts and decorating pieces, and since I'm so new at this, making a little quilt is right up my alley! Thanks for the nice project, too!

Wishing all of you and your families a warm, happy and fun Holiday Season!

XOXO,

Cyndi
