Christmas Wishes By: Sharon Vrooman, New York, USA
This was Gail Pan’s 2009 BOM. I love the selection of words to express the faith and gratitude for the season – for all time. I chose subtle seasonal fabrics so this could hang from Oct – Jan. It was donated for a charity fund raiser.

Harmony Hopes By: Penny Globe, Ontario, Canada
Although these playful angels are finished they are not finished. I continue to add more bling as I come across “stuff”. I hope this never sells in our next exhibition as the big child in me is very attached to it.
