The Winter Quilt

I finished the winter/Christmas quilt that I have been working on all year doing the bloggers' block of the month designs.

This quilt is entered in the 2012 Winter/Christmas Quilt Show HERE at the Quilting Tutorials Blog.  Be sure to go over and look at all the Winter/Christmas quilts.


 This weekend I plan to put away my Fall things, including the fall quilt on the back of the couch.  I'm sorry to see fall end, but its time to get rid of all the pumpkins and sunflowers.



This quilt isn't too Christmassy so it can stay out all winter.






Thank you Coleen for the wonderful Winter fabrics!

Your Winter quilt is lovely. The fabrics look great against the white background. I love the backing fabric, too.

Oh, remember your blocks from the flicker group! This is just so pretty and certainly deserves to spend the whole winter season adorning your house.

Great winter theme quilt!

Susan said...

It turned out perfect! The colors are great, and you're right - it's not too Christmasy. You'll get to enjoy it all winter!

I got the first 4 blocks done, then I fell behind as I began other projects. I think I'll work on it again after I get my biggest project finished here in a couple of weeks.

What a gorgeous fabric on the backing - plenty of Christmas cheer there and then more wintery on the front. Perfect. :D
