*** About the Project ***
Have you been wanting to start the Sleighbell sampler? You definitely need to join in and there is gorgeous kit using the same fabrics I am using! Even if you don't start this year, grab a kit before they are gone!
Block 9 is so darn cute! As I was making it I started to think about my own Christmas ornaments.

*** Be Organized ***
- I've decided I need a few more of these. They can stack and your pieces will not get messed up
- Mark EVERYTHING with Alphabitties
- I am IN LOVE with this 14" board, it's a new size and so much nicer for working with a 12" block.
** Design Boards, this is the 14" size
**Alphabitties - 3 colors of them!
*** Color Placement Tip ***
I like to figure out color placement when doing sew and flip
- First I decided to eliminate as much Red from the floral fabric as I can
- So I put the red side where it would be trimmed away
- How do you figure that out?
- Put the square down, then press it over to see!
Here is how it looks for the middle ban. Since there is a red strip, I didn't want the red in the floral to be touching it as I'd lose the stripe.
If you have not started your sashing yet, get moving on that. It is so much nicer to have all the sashing done now than having to do it at the end.
