Linda sent me this quilt for LAQ....this is one of four.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Christmas quilts...of all the projects I always want to complete for my house they are Christmas quilts...This one is so pretty!

I love her choice of fabrics...exception piecing and all around fun to quilt.

I just went in and accentuated all the parts of the quilt...twinkling stars, tree branches, rays of light....and ribbons in the border.

I quilted this on my 26 innova I used hobbs polydown batting. I used a couple different threads....for those of you who are asking....usually I try to use a thin thread so my quilting is less invasive. Mostly this is a 70 wt thread. Thanks.

wow the quilting really helps make this quilt beautiful

dmyers 10-27-2011 04:32 AM

Beautiful! The quilting is a perfect match to the topper. I love how the tree has movement.

Fabricnut 10-27-2011 04:43 AM

You do beautiful quilting and it is amazing. But I do have a question for you. Why is the stitching always so close together? Doesn't that make the quilt stiffer? What batting do you prefer to keep the finished quilt softer? I'm new at all this and have had a LAQ do most of my quilting after I do the piecing. Thanks and keep up the beautiful work.

janiesews 10-27-2011 04:45 AM

I love Christmas too and that is beautiful.

JeanLowe 10-27-2011 04:54 AM
