Esther’s beautiful mystery BOM 12 Days of Christmas we made a few years ago. I love this quilt I have added more parcels candles and green holly leaves to make the quilt a lot bigger than the original design and I have placed my 12 day little pictures to the side of the quilt rather than on the Xmas tree.
On Tuesday the below cover was handed in to the Opp Shop very very dirty. So home it came and through the washing machine it went and now we have a lovely clean top. I will finish it and we will sell it at our Church cake and book stall in March money goes to maintenance on the church.
A couple of things I plan to do with the Grandchildren over the school holidays??????
My beautiful Gum Tree trunk???? You can see the last of the bark peeling off at the bottom of the trunk.
We are surrounded with tree blossoms so lots of sore eyes and sneezing at present!!!!!
Tree in back ground centre of photo is a gum tree it sheds it’s bark every year and the the trunk and branches are olive to emerald green this is my favourite tree near our house I can sit and look at it for ages. It is covered at present with it’s new soft green leaves.
Green tree frogs who must of lost there way and ended up in my sons entrance, before I grabbed my camera a tiny one was on top of these two, they nestle like this to keep moist. I ended up covering them with a damp cloth to stop them drying out to much.
Not a lot to show I’m running out of days rathe than hours LOL. Merry Christmas every one and I wish you all the best for 2015. I’m off to link with Esther at

that is the problem with trees and greenery isn’t it — the pollen – no problem with that right now here of course – chilly but not freezing cold. Love your Christmas quilt hanging
Love your version of the 12 days of christmas, maybe next year I will buy the pattern and then next christmas I can hang it too.
Having the same problem with pollen at the moment, but the flowers are worth it
Happy Xmas, Jenny
Do you know what? Looking at your 12 Days I am in AWE of you Glenda, those 2 candles are exactly what is missing! I think they just make the quilt! What a beauty, I love it
Season’s Greetings to you and yours
