Ohhhh Christmas Tree…

…Ohhh Christmas Trreee how lovely is your quilting!! 

Diane, from Heritage Guild outdid herself when she stitched up this lovely gift for her sister!  (and SO early too!!)

P1200681

An effective use of the traditional Christmas colours…

P1200704

So simple…yet SEW effective!

 P1200699

Two different snow fabrics form the background…

P1200700

Can you see the loop and snowflake quilting?  Perfect for this quilt…

And then Diane zigzagged down the trees using a decorative stitch from her sewing machine!

    Thanks for sharing that! It is a great quilt and a great reminder that I need to get my holiday projects started (I don't know when...sigh).

    Beautiful quilt gives me an idea for a window covering as my kitchen window now looks into another window. so sad the alfalfa field is disappearing.

    Hi there - Love that pattern - does anyone know what it is called or where to get it? I feel like I saw it in a quilt magazine but can't remember which one. Beautiful and simple and very striking? Thanks.
