| Here it is! I completed it yesterday. I love love it. This is made entirely from my stash, and it is mostly Christmas fabric. Each block has a different background fabric. Some of the blocks are made from Lori Holt's "Quilty Fun" book. Lori has a blog, Bee in my Bonnet. Some of the patterns are from Instagram. She has posted the ones not in the book there. The border is all scrap Christmas fabric., It is off to my quilter. Once I have it back, I will have a lot of fun added a few touches to it. (Bows on the wreaths, hanger on the Christmas ball. some decorations on the tree, just a couple of accents.) |

| Also, in my spare time, I have been making Christmas cards. I enjoy using the iris folding technique. I have been trying out some new patterns. |
 |
| Today, Andy and I got out some of our decorations. This leads to house cleaning. I would rather be sewing. I did clean up my sewing room. Time to put all that back in order. Now to get out the next round of fabric to play with. I hope you are having a great day. Mary |

Cute quilt! I bought Lori's book, but I've never made anything from it yet. Have fun with the 'decorations'!
Your Christmas Quilt will be a cherished heirloom for many generations yet to come. Lovely cards with such detail foldings. Sharing Joy and Jingles...
love your wall hanging and sounds good adding extras, eagerly be waiting to see it completed. Cards look lovely, have you done the folding with papers or fabric could not decide looking at the photos
i love your Christmas quilt
I love your Christmas quilt. So bright and happy. Your cards are great too. I look forward to seeing it quilted with your added touches...I made a mitten block like yours for our small group Christmas block raffle. I'm going to refer my group to your blog so they can see what to do with the blocks...thanks for sharing.
the quilt, all the cards...delightful....you outshine me for sure in the card making
Love the quilt and the cards!
Your Christmas quilt is fabulous! Love the stocking block in the lower corner... and the cards are fantastic. I have been gifted 3 or 4 of those by friends over the years.
I have changed the name of my blog so pigtalesandquilts wont be updating on your sidebar any longer.
Can you add www.stitchandquilt.com to your sidebar. It will show me as Stitch and Quilt.
Then delete the pigtalesandquilts. A fresh start for 2015 and lots of fun coming up. :)
Thanks Mary!
Somehow I missed this Post Mary! but Pinterest just popped up with the photo of your xmas quilt..... love it!! Happy Christmas!
