Enter to win a copy of Nancy Halvorsen’s new book Jingle All the Way.



I absolutely adore Christmas time and have a real weakness for Christmas decorations. If you love the Christmas season, this book is a must have. Nancy has some inventive new decorating ideas in her new book such as a decorative fireplace, peppermint garlands, and ornament shaped wall hangings. There are also great gifts such as gift tags, gift card holders, bags, and pillows. Her stuff is so cute I can hardly stand it! Be sure to check in with the Gifty Galore group on Quilt With Us to see some of these projects sewn up. Join now and you will have some great holiday gift ideas, plus friends to help pass the time while you sew them up!

    I havent done a Christmas project in forever. Seems like Im busy all summer and then into the fall but then I lose steam and get too busy. Even my December entry of the Runner of the Month is missing! I should flip my seasons around and do Christmas in July, yes?

    Last year our family said no more gifts. If you really wanted to give something it had to be something you made. It was the best thing we ever did for Christmas. The best gift I received was banana nut bread (yummmmmy). I made several aprons and quilted throws. We are already working on next years gifts. Thanks for a chance to win the book, it will give me tons of new ideas.
