Merry & Bright
I
love decorating with quilts for Christmas, only I don't start until
after Thanksgiving is over. Pulling out all my holiday quilts and
deciding where to display them really gets me in the Christmas
spirit.
Of
course, I always make one or two new ones to add into the mix. This
happy little wall hanging is my latest. One of my friends gave me
this fabric, including the colorful Christmas tree print used for the borders and backing.
Red,
green, aqua, lime, and pink dots make lovely Chinese Lantern blocks
that look a lot like ornaments. Quilting was done using white thread
in serpentine and straight stitches. Merry & Bright is 32”
square.
