Christmas 2011

Anyone remember my post about Christmas 2010 when I made this quilt?

Well, this years job was to make a quilt from the scraps for boyfriend's mom!

What do you think?

I love this design, whichever way you look at it your eye catches something different

 Same Yankee fleece backing as 2010

I didn't bind this quilt, I turned it inside out and topstitched the edge and inner edge

Simple enough, but will keep the batting in place

I was afraid too much quilting would take away from the design and also, have you ever tried to quilt fleece? ugh, pulling and puckering mess.

Quilt Stats:

Size: 48" x 60"

Pattern: inspired by Boxy Stars but modified by myself

Quilted by: myself

Completed: December 4, 2011

Anyone else starting to get in the holiday spirit?

These are definitely helping me!!
