Christmas Carolina Chain
 

<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:DoNotOptimizeForBrowser/> </w:WordDocument> </xml><![endif]-->I made this from Bonnie Hunter's Carolina Chain pattern which, at the time, I found in her "Addicted to Scraps" column in Quiltmaker magazine. The pattern is now available in her newest book, Addicted to Scraps. I used a constant red print and a constant white print to form the chains and add some cohesiveness to the very scrappy top. I set off the scrappy foundation-pieced border with a narrow black border. Black binding and a snowflake-type print for the back completes the quilt.

This is a Christmas gift for my Mom. I had her open it early, so she could use it this holiday season, instead of having to wait until next year.

Happy Holidays!

Beautifully done. I am sure your Mom will treasure it. If it were mine, I would use it all year long.

That is awesome!

Beautiful quilt, lucky Mom!!!

nicely done

really neat and what a lot of work.

I really like this quilt. I'm going to have to look at Bonnie Hunter s Quiltville for the directions. I think I'd like to make one. Thanks.

That is a fine and thoughtful gift.

Love your scrappy quilt.
