This one didn't get finished in time for the holidays but is now ready for next years celebration.
(kit here)
when I was creating the quilt back, I had originally decided to make this into a wall hanging. So I thought a good idea would be to use up some jo-anns Christmas flannel from a couple of years ago since no one would see the back. I ended up piecing a bunch of different flannels together along with some grey solid scraps.
I'm not a big fan of jo-anns fabric quality, but the flannels turned out to be a good choice and use of fabrics from my stash. Once this was finished I decided to keep in as a quilt and not turn it into a wall hanging. I also tried my hand at a little free hand quilting around the boarders, so much fun!
the binding is that's all stripe from Michael Miller's holiday fabrics, which is currently on sale.
the next quilt I completed is made out of Anna Maria Horner's little folks voile's, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE how it turned out.
this is also a quilt kit, here.
I love the back on this, which is little folks flannel forest hills in glow. It is so soft. I had some scraps of voile that I used together with the flannel as a chunky boarder on one of the sides.
I did some straight lined quilting and bound it in dobby dots lilac from the original pastry line from little folks.
I love this quilt and the voile is just so nice and soft to snuggle in.
