Hi -- thought I'd show you what's been keeping me busy! A friend challenged me with 1 yard of green fabric -- said to make a tree.
I designed this on EQ6, pieced it, and quilted it on the Longarm. It was sure fun pulling this one together! It's about 40x40. Also two friends gave me ideas -- thanks guys! Though the colors are true on my computer, when I post they seem to change. The green of the tree is a true Christmas green!!!

Love it!! Is this the Eleanor burns pattern? I have made that one but this one looks more elaborate. I love the embellishment you did on the pressies and your snowflake quilting is the perfect finish! Great job, it will look wonderful "decking your halls"!

No, I said I designed the quilt on EQ6...there might be others out there (I'm sure of it), but I pulled this together....
