I was just surfing the internet in my PJ's since it is snowing here in the Philadelphia Area and the kids are already out back making snow angles and found this FABULOUS new freebie from Blue Ribbon Designs. It is perfect for this time of year and it looks like a quick to stitch project.
I've had visions of learning to sew this year and think this would look so cute made into a pillow, a wall hanging, or the cover page to a photo album. Not sure what way I am going to go with this one but I'm excited to find a new project that I can start today using stash.
