December Bloggers BOM

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas.
We had a wonderful time. Our daughter Elizabeth with her new husband Ben, plus our youngest son Paul drove from Salt Lake City to join us, along with our daughter Aubrey, for a few days. We went on hikes, watched movies, played board games, cooked and ate too much food, and enjoyed just being together.

Now that all of the frenzy of the holidays are over, it's so nice to relax and get back to the sewing machine.
Jackie just announced the December block for Blogger's BOM designed by Pat Sloan.
You can find Pat's tutorial HERE.

So fun to pull out the Kaffes.

So far, I've only been making one block each month, but I've seen a lot of other people making two.
I'm pondering doing the same.
Jackie has yet to reveal the quilt's setting, but I'm guessing 24 will look better than 12.

Block 4 has now sits on the design wall next to months 1-3

I agree that it's nice to have a little calm after the excitement of the holidays. :) We are finished with all of the scheduled events now, too, and are able to relax. Nice.

I like your block 4.. I need to remake mine. Nothing about it works for me. And gads, do I need to make more, you're making more. This whole 1 or 2 blocks is making me tense. I might stick to 1. Or just be undecided.
