They Followed THE Star .... Quilt!
4 Attachment(s)
I thought you might enjoy seeing what lies atop my bed during the holidays. It's actually a lap size quilt, but I found that it was getting folded in between uses, and not seen ... thus I didn't get to enjoy it to the utmost!
Solution ... flipped over a Valentine's quilt which has a black with metallic gold design (see the pillow sham for the fabric) for a perfect underlay to show off the Christmas quilt. Love it! (and it seems the Judges did too, when I showed it this year for a red/first ribbon!). It has a scrappy back, much like it's storage case in the off-season, which means it can stay out, as there's nothing Christmas about the pillow sham and it coordinates with my family room!! :) I've given you a close up of one of the sheep, so you can see the curly fleece! The rest is SITD, and stars to keep with the all important Star!! [ATTACH=CONFIG]296450[/ATTACH] |
Really nice, glad you figured out a way to display it.

I love it! And pillow is just perfect! Wonderful job and thank you for the inspiration:)
|
Looks great displayed. Merry Christmas.
|
Thanks for sharing!! I love it!
|
Beautiful! Do you mind me asking where you found the pattern?
|
It's a Nancy Halvorsen, Art to Heart pattern ...from a couple of years ago, though I have seen the book still in LQS'. The quilt is featured on the back cover.
Thanks everyone ... for the kind words. It was a FUN quilt to make ... and works up easily, because of the large pieces. I have plans to someday re-create the Shepherd into Little Bo-Peep and make it as a child's quilt, with the Nursery Rhyme as part of the gift. |
Very nice for the holidays and love the scrappy for year round.

I love Nancy's patterns. It's a lovely quilt and the sheep are delightful. Your cushion/pillow is beaytifully rich looking, exotic even. Thanks for showing your work.
|
Love it!!! I would love to find the pattern. Can you share the name/number of the book maybe I can find it online.
