Hot Chocolate Club

I was so thrilled to complete this project in 2011.  It was a block of the month that I got several years ago.  I had completed some of the blocks, and finally got in gear and completed the rest and put it together.  Then it was several more months before I settled down to quilt it.  The pattern is Pearl Louise's "Hot Chocolate Club."  I love snowmen, and she creates adorable snowmen patterns.

  4. I just finished my Hot Chocolate quilt that I also started several years ago. It is a gift for my daughter in law. She had commented when I started it that when I was done, she wanted me to make her one. After I realized it was not a quick and easy project, I decided she could have it!! She's thrilled and loves it.
