I had some fabric that I loved with country angels on it, but couldn't figure out what to do with it! I will do that...fall in love with a piece of fabric and not always think through how to use it? Well I finally got the idea to fussy cut the angels. I just did a primitive stitching around the outside of the angel and then looked through my scraps to find some complimentary Christmas fabrics. This is what I came up with. The 4" stars are paper pieced.

Thank you everyone! I don't normally do such intricate borders, but for some reason the stars and squares just seemed to work. I appreciate all of your very kind comments!

Beautiful quilt. I know what you mean about liking a piece of fabric and not knowing what to do with it.

Beautiful quilt and so is the one in your avatar.
I like the way you scattered the stars in the border.

aneternalpoet 11-22-2010 08:34 AM

this is amazing! I have 6 grandkids, and each one so far I have begun a collection for when I pass on.. One of the collections is Angels, for my 3rd grandchild ( Jocelyn ) who " loves angels in the long dressers".. she used to tell me that all the time, dressers, instead of dresses.. So I have angels on the heart when I think of my little honeypunkin.. Thanks for showing this beautiful piece of heavenly quilting..
