Default first Christmas quilt and tiny tumbler

The Christmas quilt is from a charm pack. I love the colors. The second is also from a charm pack and it is a WIP. Still have to put borders on.

The third is made of tiny tumbler shapes. I received a box full of small floral pieces (cut outs from the making of scrubs). My friend got them from the factory making nurses scrubs. They really were small and curved pieces and appear to be the cut out from under the arm. I made a tumbler shape and cut out the shape = 1.5 inches at the top and 2.75 inches on the bottom. I sashed each group and this is what I ended up with. I like it. It is going to be gifted when finished. I have enough of those small floral pieces for at least three more of these quilts...

Very pretty, the tiny tumblers are adorable! I too am working on a Christmas charm pack quilt. I always make a Christmas in July project every year. I record some Christmas movies to watch and burn a "Christmas" scented candle for ambience while I work on my annual project. HO HO HO!

Very pretty quilts. I love the way you used the small tumbler and sashed them in blocks. All the quilts are lovely.

That is the way to do it and I do believe I am going to follow suit and really make it an event to do Christmas in July. You are awesome indeed. Thanks.

If you get the Hallmark Channel they are in the midst of their Christmas in July...been sewing to it for the past 2 weeks.
LOVE these quilts - the second one particularly- Kudos on those beautifully matched corners.
