This is a BQ quilt with some changes - pattern by Debbie Bowles of Maple Island Quilts.

I made the smaller block version, added sashing, since I didn't the blocks set the regular way and added borders. I love funky Christmas prints and prints with Christmas colors, but not a Christmas print. I scored the print for the border at the Portsmouth Fabric Company for only 2.60a yard, so that is how it all began.

I love this with the white background I could just wrap myself up in it!

forgive me but does BQ mean anything? I have tried to figure this out but stumped.

Does BQ=block quilt?
