What a great family tradition, and a wonderful way of preserving it! Absolutely beautiful quilt, too!

Your quilt is just one of cutest ways ever to preserve a family tradition!!! Thank you for sharing!

My daughter does the elf-on-a-shelf thing for the 3 g-kids.
He comes out Dec 1st and sits on the fireplace mantle watching and reporting on their behaviour to Santa.

That is so cute!!

MargeD 09-23-2011 10:43 AM

What a wonderful quilt, especially when your son asked you to make quilts based on a family tradition. That's especially nice that he wants to continue the tradition, which makes it especially nice.

dphelps 09-23-2011 11:14 AM

Peggy, is that pattern for sale? I did not see it on your blog.

kberry 09-23-2011 11:48 AM

What a great quilt! I love family traditions and they mean even more when they are carried down though the years from generation to generation!

rootyr 09-23-2011 11:49 AM

OMG what a treasure!!!

Alondra 09-23-2011 11:53 AM

thank you, I am actually artistically challenged but I made the shapes very simple. I had some trouble making the elf face look the way I wanted it to. After quite a number of tries, I decided it was close enough. lol. Have a lovely day.

MoMoSews 09-23-2011 01:15 PM

I've always had a thing for elves..this is just awesome!!

Grandma Peg 09-23-2011 01:20 PM

Your quilt is just precious!! Very clever. My granddaughters have an elf that is in a different room each day and they are not allowed to touch it because then the magic is gone and he can't report to Santa. They have the book on this also.

fairydawn 09-23-2011 01:25 PM

Love it! Did you ever think about making your pattern to sell?

JanieH 09-23-2011 01:45 PM

How creative you are! And industrious to make them for everyone! What a special family tradition and what a perfect way to carry it on!

macygma 09-23-2011 02:02 PM

How adorable is that! Would bring a smile to even Scrooge!

What a sweet tradition & a lovely quilt to carry it on. :)

ploverwi2 09-23-2011 03:01 PM

It is so cute. If you designed it, you should be printing the pattern and selling it, because you are that good, and many of us would love to make your pattern.
