Each year a group of quilters who are so dear to me, swap fabrics for a Christmas gift exchange. We send in a piece of fabric, they all go in brown bags, we trade and then we go to town to come up with a piece that incorporates the fabric. We then meet for a fabulous party of swapping, food and laughter.
This year, oddly enough, I received the exact same piece of fabric that I drew last year!! A blue background Grinch and Christmas tree toss. This fabric challenged me last year and again this year!
I saw a few versions of this on the internet, so off I went.....
I put a little bit of batting into the Grinchy hand to give some dimension to the piece.
Incorporating the Grinch toss, again was border magic as those Grinches and trees faced every which way! I though a little "Merry Merry" would do the trick.
Finis! I like the piece, a fun little wall quilt.
