Default Christmas presents

I started making these Christmas presents in April of 2015. They were given to sisters and sisters-in-law. There were times I thought I would never get done in time. The purple and yellow butterfly quilt I donated for a raffle. Everyone seemed to be very surprised and happy. Thanks for looking.

All are beautiful! You must have lots of sisters! They should love them and be very pleased & thankful! I have 5 sisters and tried to do quilts for all for Christmas about 3 years ago and never finished! So,I settled for birthdays. Still have 2 birthdays to go. One Mar. 24, one Dec. Really love the peacock (that blue and black is so pretty together) and orange and brown! Where did you get the peacock panel?

Just wondering what kind of batting you use? Your quilts have a very nice puffiness to them :-)

They all have polyester batting for less shrinkage.

The peacock is from Timeless Treasures, Plume collection. I bought it a couple of years ago to make my daughter a King sized quilt as a shower gift. The recent quilt is made from leftover fabric and I still have enough to make a couple more quilts. I bought all the designs they had because I wanted variation. Thanks for your comments.

Your quilts are beautiful! I especially like how the turquoise makes the first one pop!
