A blanket design for using sample books

When I saw this interior decor fabric sample lot, I was attracted by the shining look . I thought it would be nice to make satined glass appliqués with them, but they are too thick to make appliqués.

Winter

Winter here is long, almost half the year, white and cold, at the same time, fun and beautiful. I can't tell how I feel about it. Sometimes I love it, but sometimes I hate it. You wonder why people hate winter? Yes! they were cars parking on road. And you wonder why people love winter? You wonder why people hate snow? It was our driveway after a snow storm. Our Kitchen door And you wonder why people love snow? The last rose in my back yard, it was beautiful, isn't it?
