Here is my entry! I just finished it. I have always wanted to make a Christmas Quilt, but I usually hang our stockings from my quilt display rack. All year long I hang different quilts up and we don't have a fireplace mantle for the stockings.
It is 37"x37". I used a variety of fabrics from my stash- 3 upholstery fabrics, fake suede, green silk noil, gingham, Asian print cottons and one actual "Christmas" print cotton. I like using scraps because it gives a quilt an interesting look.
I did some fancy machine stitching in places. The suede already had stitching on it. The quilt has a flannel back and could be a table covering, wall hanging, sofa drape etc. I haven't decided what to do with it yet.
Thanks for visiting!
