The name of the pattern is called "Spring into Christmas" ..by a local pattern author in Alaska.

Ak wanted pebbling around the trees....all the other quilting is fairly simple to just make those trees pop out. I outlines the holly in the border ...very nice quilt.

I quilted this all freehand on my INNOVA> I used HObbs polydown batting.

Thanks for looking.
Charisma

Awesome, such a beautiful job on both quilt and quilting!

A Walk Thru the Woods on a Snowy Day - beautiful!

Great inspiration....

I want to be able to do that ...... so much to do ... so little time .... hmmmm -- I should get off the computer, prioritize, and execute - right?

Charismah - I just can't say it enough - You are a master of your craft ... I/we always find it a joy to view your work

Thanks for sharing..

CorneliaVa 07-07-2011 01:54 PM

Is this a quilt or a wall hanging? Dimensions of block? ....
Thanks... Didn't see it on the site .... only $10 for pattern seems reasonable....

That is so cool. But my first thought was does the owner of the quilt top know how long those pebbles take to do. it looks great. But oh my the time you put in.

RobertaMarie 07-07-2011 02:06 PM

This is such a nice quilt!! Love the pebbling which makes it look very snowy. Nice work all around from both of you.
Hugs~~~

You both did a beautiful Job.
I love the trees.

Tweety2911 07-07-2011 02:15 PM

Gorgeous!

CorneliaVa 07-07-2011 02:20 PM

ooops.... of COURSE it's obvious it is a "quilt" .... Sorry, I meant to say: is it bed-sized, crib-sized ..... or a small wall hanging ....? :oops:

NauDeeGal 07-07-2011 02:24 PM

Wow! I absolutely love everything about this quilt!

AkBelles, your choice of fabrics and your piecing are so beautiful! Your request for the pebbling around the trees really sets off the trees. I like the style of piecing of the trees too!

Charisma, your quilting is stunning! I just love the pebbling around the trees! It makes it look as if it is snowing!

Beautiful work ladies!

twixbar 07-07-2011 02:52 PM

barnbum 07-07-2011 03:23 PM

I love pebbles!

Nettie Phillips 07-07-2011 03:29 PM

Beautiful. I love the quilting too.

feffertim 07-07-2011 03:29 PM

Charisma, your quilting is amazing. I have ordered the pattern, it says no applique or curved pieces so I might be able to make it. If it turns out half as good as your picture, I will have to send it to you to be quilted, no one else will be able to do it like you do.

cctx. 07-07-2011 06:28 PM

Absolutely beautiful.

Heather Hayllar 07-08-2011 02:54 AM

All I can say is I love it!!!
My fav things are pine trees and (believe it or not) cows!!
I have made 2 x stack & wack pine tree quilts and recently was given a pine tree pattern with the cow carrying the tree!!
Where DID your pattern come from?? I would love to try this out
Well Done

dusty222 07-08-2011 03:00 AM

Just lovely! I have been practicing pebbles and I wondered if you use a lighter weight thread on the pebbles. Mine looks and feels stiff -- not soft and light like yours. I can use all the help I can get. Thanks for sharing.

malega 07-08-2011 03:08 AM

Very beautiful, your work is always so very awesome.

plainpat 07-08-2011 03:08 AM

The pebble quilting is a perfect choice.Just lovely & the back is gorgeous too.Love the whole quilt.

blueangel 07-08-2011 03:21 AM

Awesome

Babs194068 07-08-2011 03:32 AM

Awesome job.

QuiltinCats 07-08-2011 04:00 AM

Beautiful quilt work! The trees really pop out of the quilt. I find the catherdal window technique interesting.

NUTMEG10 07-08-2011 04:04 AM

Pattern is just gorgeous and work by both of you is beautiful. I love the trees and how they were done. Of course your work is always outstanding. Thanks for sharing.

Charisma:

Do you have a website that gives info. on your quilting services? I live in Vermont and have been admiring your work since I joined this group about 2 months ago. I'd love to send some of my quilts to you but am not sure where you live, what your costs are, what the turn-a-round time is, etc.

Thanks for always sharing!

Wow! Charisma, you did a great job on a fantastic quilt! I love that pebbling. I am such a novice at the long arm, but am going to have to try pebbling. I just love your work; you make the designs in a quilt just POP!
