Art Every Day - Vingt-Sept

In a land, long ago and far, far away - people used to go Christmas shopping downtown,

where the storefronts might be full of shiny bikes and dollhouses.

We still do that in our local podunk of a town, where we also have a Christmas Tree lighting

in the park, an town-wide open house featuring homemade cookies and

vintage 60's decorations on the light poles.

(Mind you, this is a place where you can still get canned peas on your plate at the diner.)

Today I am practicing the FINE ART of browsing online for Christmassy fabric.

So, yeah - this is fudging a bit on the "Art Every Day" theme.

I love this happy pattern by Alexander Henry and who knows,

it may just show up on the shelves of our tiny quilt shop!
