Merry Christmas "REDnesday"

Merry Rednesday for all the folks that love the color  Red and especially during Christmas. This is the corner of my bar that separates the kitchen from the living/dining room area. My Santa the "Chef"with his busy elves and the Nutcracker chef apprentice that wants to help. The tree is decorated with vintage red plastic cookie cutters from the 1940's and 50's and candy canes, now what I would like to eventually do is add a small collection of Gingerbread men to mix in as I don't have many on the other side of the tree and that way I could spread them out. Today I'm joining Sue over at  It's A Very Cherry World for a bit of festive Red and Free Pretty Things For You. Hope this tickles your festive spirit, don't forget to visit all the other bloggers with more fun  to share.

REDnesday with ME Cherries

 Today I'm joining REDnesday with It's A Very Cherry World to show off my ME Cherry Quilties that I sent off in a swap that I was invited to join by Sandra Kaye. I haven't done much quilting in years with the exception of quilts for baby gifts in gift giving and for grandchildren. This was a piece of fabric that I had in my stash left from kitchen curtains I made some years back. They have long been replaced by another vintage style fabric from the 1950's but I love the fabric for a kitchen, so cheerful and full of fun. I have never joined REDnesdays before but thought this was an appropriate share for this blog hop. Anyone who loves swaps and is interested can join Sandra for another for a Christmas theme starting about November 15th. Don't forget to visit all the other fun REDnesday gals to see there vintage red fun!
