I've always wanted my blog to be a space of inspiration. I'm excited to show you many of the quilts made in alternate colors and fabrics. Hope you enjoy seeing them all up close! I've asked a few of my favorite bloggers to review the book and we'll be sharing that too.
And of course, I'm always working on something new - so expect some new show-and-tells between book posts!
No Christmas book would be complete without a tree skirt and some Christmas stockings. So let's start with those...
The stockings are super simple. The book has 4 different patchwork options for the cuff and each stocking is fully lined.
The tree skirt was inspired by a traditional star block - known as both Rising Sun and Christmas Star. The good news is that there are no set-in pieces!
Last Christmas I made one for my daughter using solids and a bright holiday print...
This is one of my favorite projects. A simple wreath design that can be hung on the wall or used as a table topper...
I want to make this again! Can you see it in Fall colors or solids?
