Where's the egg nog?!
 

This pattern is by McKenna Ryan. I had to purchase some background fabric because the pattern would not be as cute with out. I only have the top done and it was a difficult job. Thanks for looking![ATTACH=CONFIG]604149[/ATTACH]

An adorable winter quilt

Love, love it. BrendaK

Really lovely quilt!

great job! I've looked at her patterns but always chickened out--wish someone would do them as laser pre-cut--more my style!

I have been working on a McKenna Ryan pattern for a long time. Your are not kidding. They are job. Hope I live long enough to finish it.

Cute bears Suz and you’re right, it wouldn’t be as cute without your background. Great job.

Th background fabric you purchased is really perfect for your bear. Your quilt is really cute. I have one McKenna Ryan pattern for a rooster-my fusband purchased it to make a hand-tooled leather picture for me. I think her work is nice. I would like to do it in fabric-someday.

Love it! Will be a nice wall hanging for the entire winter.

That's darling! You sure have been busy, Suz!

Your bear is adorable and you were so right about the background making the picture complete. Her fabrics are the best and she designs a lot of them specifically for her patterns. Once the fabric is gone, it is gone and kits are no longer offered. Patterns are still available.
I have several laser cut kits from McKenna Ryan. I did the first one before she laser cut them and you are correct.....it is a job and a half! The laser cut kits are definitely the way to go with her patterns. I recently purchased her Row by Row, which was laser cut, and it took me a full day to cut the tabs holding the laser cut pieces in the same fabrics apart, numbering them and sorting by area (in this case animals) and then placing. My only difficulty was that she didn't do a full sized placement guide. It came out adorable, BUT I have yet to quilt it and add the embellishments. I also bought the Sept. block to her Be Happy BOM, and have the Piece of My Heart II waiting to be started. I looked carefully at her shop samples and she FMQs around each piece 1/16" away from the edges in a monofilament thread. Until now I wasn't sure I was capable of hitting that, but with plenty of applique work under my belt, I am sure I am ready to begin.

Cute wall hanging! That background is a nice addition to it too.

Her patterns are darling. You did a marvelous job.

The only one I've done so far, I used a panel background rather than trying the million tiny pieces for trees, snow, etc. It turned out great.

Your extra effort resulted in a wonderful quilt top. I took a class with Karen McTavish and she said "do the hardest thing you can, you won't regret it". I think that is very applicable to this very cute quit. Awesome background fabric too, that was a good call on your part.

It's so cute how it looks like a window

Very cute!

Adorable!! I love her patterns...I keep watching for one that calls to me enough to justify the costs of her stuff. I hope to purchase a traditional applique kit one of these days. Her fabrics are beautiful as is your quilt..

Love your cute wall hanging! It's great for winter.

That is really cute---love her patterns.

Adorable and that background fabric is perfect.

He is so cute! is she the one who had horse patterns? I had some forever and finally gave them away. You did a great job!

This is really adorable.

I don't know about horse patterns but I am not even going to look.

Cute! Cute! Cute!

A very cute wall hanging.

Toni Whitney is the one who does some amazing horse ones. And lots of other very realistic looking animal ones.
