Hi!
Back again today with a few more holiday quilts to share.
The one on the left was made back in the late '90's. The pattern is a clam shell. I was still a baby quilter then and I am really proud of it. (Just don't look too closely at the binding .)  The one on the right is a Thimbleberries pattern called Christmas Blossom. I really enjoyed making that one.

The one with the trees on the cabinet is another Thimbleberries pattern that I made this year. I'm donating that one to a silent auction this weekend to raise money for our youth to go on a missions trip next summer.
 
The one on the table is new this year.

Wallhanging that will also be donated to auction

                                      I call this one Christmas Star

Christmas Quilts

Merry Christmas!
I hope you are having a wonderful holiday, enjoying parties with friends, making lovely homemade one of kind gifts, and enjoying family traditions.
Today I would like to share the very first Christmas quilt I made. Its a red, white and green double Irish chain. I machine quilted the center and then I handquilted holly leaves in the border.


The next little cutie is a sampler of blocks made by friends in my local quilt guild. I hand quilted it.

 
Here is a cute little wreath quilt that hangs in my kitchen at Christmas.

 
Quilts make such nice decorations.
