Christmas Quilts For more Christmas quilts...
Spruce It Up - One year I got hooked on making Christmas
tree quilts. I liked the 3-d trees so much, that I made two of them.
I also made the Christmas Mouse on the table. 10/15/2000 to
11/7/2000 |
O' Christmas Tree -
Made
10/1/2000 to 11/11/2000 from Christmas Tree Quilt by Back Porch Press.
|
Christmas Tree - I made this quilt in honor of my late Aunt whom I
received my inspiration to quilt. She made quilts from old clothing as
she could not afford to purchase fabrics. I made this from my (very
limited at the time) scraps. 691 pieces - 11/23/2000
|
Christmas Tree Skirt - This tree skirt is paper pieced and
completed in time for Xmas 2001. I'd decided that the old treat
skirt wasn't coming out of storage again. Began: 12/2/2001
Completed: 12/9/2001
|
Snowlady Stocking - A friend and I went stocking crazy one year. I
made at least 15 stockings featuring snowladies, snowmen, Mario, Poo,
Picachu, Minnie Mouse, Christmas trees, etc. I made so many that I
actually lost count. |
Snowman Topper - This quilt is a topper that is made to go over a
chair/sofa or as the header to a bed quilt. Pattern by
Possibilities. |
Right: Snow Gear - I was very motivated to
work on this quilt as it brought back childhood memories of playing with
paper dolls. 11/1/02 to 11/11/02
|
Noah's Ark - Something is out of Whack May 2001 - Our sewing bee
took our first retreat and we all made stack-n-whack quilts. This was my
second one. Its titled "Something is out of Whack" because a friend used
an animal print so I swapped one block with her and sewed it into this
quilt. 5/25/01 to 7/23/01 |
Crazy Juggler - Another snowman quilt made in 2002 for my bathroom.
|
Penguin - Began and completed this quilt on October 13, 2003. This
is a mystery pattern from Paper Panache.

Snowman Collector - This was a joy to make. The patterns are from Stitch
Connection, a block of the month series.
Won a 1st place ribbon in the Flower Valley Quilt Guild 2005 show in the bed
appliquéd quilt category.

over the years. The stocking next to the Santa bear stocking is a
purchased stocking. I also made the Christmas stocking wall quilt

House - Began 8/15/1999 and Completed 9/16/1999. I also
made pillows and pillow cases. |
CHRISTMAS QUILT completed October 5, 2003

quilt resembles the original quilt, I resized and/or changed patterns to my
liking. Has 41 different blocks and I added a different border. Look at the

buttons, sequins, and ric-rac.
