    Default Christmas Cardinal Wreath mini quilt

    I just finished this mini today. Well, I still have to put a sleeve on the back, but taped it to the hanging rack so I could get a picture. I like how this came out. Lot's going on in less than 13" square, paper-pieced, piecing, appliqué, free motion quilting, straight line quilting, quilting with my embroidery machine, embroidery, buttons and bling embellishments. My Mother's middle name was "JOY" so, the JOY button has a special meaning and my mother loved Cardinals. Glad one of my four Christmas projects got done, well there is always next year. Thanks for looking.

    That is a really nice, and oh so pretty wreath quilt. I love the cardinal too. I read a book once that said to see a redbird meant it was going to be a good day. You have so much talent in that mini. Great Job!

    I love your quilt under it too.

    Merry Christmas!

    Great job, love it. You have such patience to work on something so small.
