Yes, I'd also like to know where I can get the pattern. Is it one that can be purchased or shared? I'd love to make this Christmas quilt as a gift to myself as well.
The pattern for the piecing is by Ann Weber and was featured in a Spring 2009 Magazine special issue by McCalls "America loves Scrap Quilts". It was called Countryside Star. I began it originally as a fall quilt and I was thinking "apples". When the piecing was done it shouted "Christmas". SO.... I started to look for Christmas motifs that I could use. Didn't like much of what I found so I sketched my own in the size that fit the blocks and then after much anguishing I designed the holly branches and ribbons that are in the borders.
