My Christms Quilt
 
3 Attachment(s)
This one I made for myself :D The quilting design is from Leah Day: bare branches. I never did this design before and it takes a lot of travel stitching, good practice! Pitty it's not that visible in the pictures.
Last picture is the back as you all would have guessed ;)

It means the way you get from one place to another without stopping....kind of like stitching in the ditch to move across a block. Look up Leah Day and she can describe it better.

Thank you all for your lovely comments!

Travel stitching is when you have to stitch over previous stitched lines. With this design I had to go back all the time to make the branches.

Colorful and fun! Looks like Christmas to me!

northern lass 11-27-2012 12:34 AM

Lovely quilt

Nilla 11-27-2012 04:03 AM

This is a quilt made for snuggling. The pattern kind of reminds me of wrapping paper all over my floor on Christmas morning! Very pretty!

kathbug 11-28-2012 05:40 AM

Love it. Looks so cozy and warm

wendiq 11-28-2012 07:25 AM

Is that the "Chop and Sew" pattern? Whatever it is, looks good.....:) Your hands have been busy.

Anael 11-28-2012 07:26 AM

Thanks all!

@solstice: it's cut and shuffle the stack of fabrics :D I cut the blocks 3 times.

sunnymom 11-28-2012 08:12 AM

Very pretty! :)

carolynjo 11-28-2012 04:12 PM

What a pretty seasonal quilt!

MimiBug123 11-28-2012 09:07 PM

Very pretty. Wants me to snuggle up in front of a good fire with it and a good book. Great job!

wordpaintervs 11-28-2012 11:29 PM

what a great job. Thanks so much for sharing it. I love the back as well. I'd like to have had that fabric available for a Christmas or winter doll dress. What fun. I'll keep my eyes open this Christmas and maybe buy a yard and a half for an outside doll dress for the SICK KIDS dolls.

Thanks for posting this ...talented lady

Thanks all!

@Vickey: the fabric is from Springs Industries Inc. but no name or designer. I bought it here in The Netherlands. Sorry I can't give you more details.
