Jungle Time

It really can be a jungle out there, this time of year!

But Kathy, who is hosting this week at Kathy's Kwilts and More, has a sweet quilt to share that should bring a smile to your day.  :) 

Welcome to December!

You can find this week's link up at What a Hoot Quilts

~*~ Calling for 2019 Hosts ~*~

Greetings!  Here we are in December, and we need to start organizing hosting spots for 2019.

If you are interested in holding Thank Goodness It's Finished Friday at your blog, we welcome you to sign up for 1 or 2 spots during the year. If you're not sure how to host a TGIFF party post, you can find good information on the "Hosting TGIFF!" tab. 

(One item of difference from that tab's information: You do NOT have to pay for your own subscription to a linking company to host for this blog. TGIFF's managers can provide Inlinkz code for these link-up parties, so you don't have to buy another subscription. If you do own your own subscription to make link-ups, yes, you can use that.)

You can find the sign-up spreadsheet at this link: 2019 Hosting Calendar.  You'll need to select the 2019 tab at the bottom of the page. (Please note that the managers are also working out which months we will work for TGIFF, and those dark gray spots are not open for general hosts to sign into.)

As I'm writing this in Newfoundland, Canada, we're being bombarded by anywhere from 25-40 cm (10-16") of snow, so I'm feeling very grateful for the house around me and the quilts I can use to keep me warm. One thing's for sure - it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around here! I hope that, wherever you are, you're staying warm (or cool!), too.

Summer, of Summer Lee Quilts, has a t-shirt quilt finish to share this week, so go check it out and link up your own finishes for the week 😊

Having a ball!
