Playing with Christmas blocks
 
1 Attachment(s)
These are the really great blocks I received from paperpieceme in the December guessing game.
I went yesterday to my LQS they have a 70% off Christmas sale and picked up a great fabric for a border They are on my brand new zero cost design board that figured out thanks to all the great ideas I found on this board.

Yep, these are great.I like the whole thing,has a modern feel to them.It's going to be so pretty when you get the borders on.Hope you show the finished results.It feels good to see it all on a design board,helps so much more than on a table or bed,looking straight in eye level vs.down. Easier to move and play with the design.My design board is flannel backed table cloth on rod/rings.It helped beyond belief.

Very "cool" quilt blocks.

Love the blocks, the design and the colors, it doesn't read Christmas to me, but maybe in person ..

lfstamper 02-09-2014 09:33 AM

Love it - would like to see it with the border Xmas fabric. Sounds perfect.

Really different idea for a Christmas quilt, I love it!

Beautiful!

Beautiful!

A drive to San Diego is always a good idea :-) are there many good quilt shops in San Clemente? my In laws live there so we go occasionally I would love to check out a quilt shop next time we go.

But I won theses from PaperPieceMe here on the board in December when she hosted a guessing game they are very cool and have been fun to play with.

Wraez, they are Christmas prints without being over the top Christmas so I'll be able to have it out all winter.

Thank you all for the kind remarks I will post new pictures once I get it done. My quilting ADD has kicked into high gear and I can't stay on any one thing longer than about 20 minutes, Ok it's not that bad but it is pretty bad, and I am actively working on 5 projects.

You mentioned your local quilt shop had 70% off on Christmas fabric, which store? Thanks.

There are no quilting stores in San Clemente - the closest is Sewing Party in Laguna Hills. They carry mostly modern fabrics.

Cozy quilt shop in Rancho San Diego, I don't know how long the sale is so I would call first.
I didn't think there was one in San Clemente but it was worth asking. Have you ever gone shos in Oceanside or vista?

That looks really interesting. Show it when you have finished it won't you? It has a visual 3D effect to it.

Looks great....
