Chilly Silly Snowmen

While exploring some new blogs shortly after the first of the year, I came across the blog "Quilt Doodle Doodles." Cindy was introducing the first section of her Block of the Month that she has planned for 2014. I fell in love with the snowmen blocks that she designed for January that she is calling "Chilly Silly Snowmen" and decided I was going to participate this year.



Here is a photo of my first section completed.  Cindy gave the option of embroidering the eyes or using buttons or beads.  I opted to use buttons and had a fun time sorting through my button collection for some matching pairs of "eyes."  


Cindy's BOM is a mystery quilt.  The only information she has given is "this quilt will consist of ten blocks, sections, or strips, one a month."  The monthly pattern is free during the month that it is announced and then available for a small fee.  She also has a giveaway with nice prizes each month for those that participate.  Currently she is also having a Blog Hop of the completed quilts from her 2013 BOM.  I am so excited to see what she has in store for us for February!
