It's time for SewCalGal's Christmas Quilt Show. My entry this years is a quilt I made in 2002 while we were still living in Northwest Montana. It is a Debbie Mumm pattern. The original pattern featured much smaller blocks and was intended to leave as raw edge applique. I just can't seem to do that so I enlarged the pattern and used hand guided machine applique. It was a fun, happy quilt to make. I hope you enjoy it!
Here are some close-ups of the blocks. All pictures are clickable.
I hang this quilt in the front entry with some of the other Christmas quilts I have made over the years. I find myself hating to take them down at the end of the season.
If you would like to see more Christmas quilt go here. Thank you very much SewCalGal for sponsoring this show!
What a talented quilter you are. I am so glad there were close ups to see. This is lovely and I can see why you would not want to take them down. Thank you. Love Lois
I can not get over how amazing your work is. I can see why you don't want to take them down, they are truly works of art, thank you so much for sharing
Wow, what a collection you have! Beautiful! And the one looks a bit similar in style to the one I showed - how about that! I can't believe the first applique quilt you featured was supposed to be smaller! That's very intricate applique - you did a fantastic job! Thanks for stopping by to see my Christmas quilt also!
Now that is a beautiful Christmasy entrance.....what a great idea to group them for more impact....I bet it feels bare after the holidays! Debby Mumm does the sweetest patterns!
Wow! So gorgeous! I can't believe all the work that went into that! That quilt is so impressive. I love the picture of your Christmas quilts all grouped together. Hopefully one day I can get a collection like that! Thanks for sharing!
Ohh this is so adorable and very cute. You did an excellent job on the applique stitching. Where are you from in Montana. I am from Great Falls. Live in Vancouver Washington. Sure do miss Montana. You can also enter this in my sewing challenge blog here at, Paula's Sewing Challenges, and you could win a little something, something. Hope to see you there soon.
This is a wonderful Santa quilt! Absolutely love it!! And wow! What a great display of Christmas wall-quilts you've got there!!! Thanks so much for sharing them! 8-)
The Santa quilt is just delightful. No wonder you are reluctant to take it down when the festivities are over. You do the most beautiful work and are such an inspiration.
