Top Row: December began with my hosting the Frienzies for a Christmas Brunch. Not all…

Another holiday gift for someone who loves red. I cut 10 x 5 rectangles from various red fabrics, created blocks using two different red panels, and then did a fence row-esque pattern, alternating vertical and horizontal placement.
