Lisa's 12 Days of Christmas, 2007-2010

Started in December 2007 for my friend Lisa W., I intended to embroider a block each month, and have all the blocks finished by Nov. 2008 and give Lisa the quilt for Christmas. That did not happen, and it did not happen the next year either. So when our quilt guild started its "PhD (Projects Half Done)" program in 2010, I was determined to get this little wallhanging finished. I used two coordinating fabrics that use the 12 Days of Christmas characters and words, one a stripe and one an allover print, adding a plain cream fabric for the embroidery, a cream with gold stars,a figured red, and a tone-on-tone green.
