Very pretty. I also love Christmas fabric especially the Henry Glass Holiday Frost line. Don't have time to make something to use this year but definitely next.

Thanks everyone.

It was incredibly simple to put together and I really enjoyed that aspect as it was my "reward" for completing some UFO tops and working on the mystery quilt. I love the clean lines of it. As I mentioned the original quilt had 20 blocks and I did 16. The original quilt also didn't have a border but I love the look of the fabric and I thought it framed it well plus gave the quilt the additional size so it could fit on a bed (or snuggle two people under).

I found the pattern for the blocks from a magazine, threw in some sashing and back to the shop for Winter's Lane yardage for the border.

I can locate the magazine at the moment, I will add that when I uncover it.

I adore red at Christmas, can't wait to order my backing fabric and hopefully get this quilted in time to enjoy this season.

Very nice and Christmassy!
