It's called the 12 days of Christmas for a reason and it starts on Dec 25th. Keep the quilt out at least a bit longer- much too pretty to put away so soon!

Beautiful. Bet you can't wait to bring it out each year. My plan is to make a Christmas quilt for each bed and a couple of lapsone also. We all do dream though, don't we?

We leave Christmas "out" until after January 6th in celebration of the Maji presenting their gifts to the Christ child. I'd leave the quilt out at least that long so you can continue to enjoy it. Beautiful work! :lol:
