Christmas Starting in June?
Posted on | June 21, 2016 | 10 Comments
Natalie Bird of The Birdhouse has a lovely Christmas quilt design called Christmas Blessings.
It has four applique blocks and some pieced blocks.
I have completed two of the applique blocks.
I have chosen to do raw edge applique for these and I have hand embroidered the words and decorations.
There are some stars to be added, but they can wait until the quilting is done.
It is not a large quilt. It ends up at about 32ins square.
Okay, another short post. Stay warm or cool depending on where you live.
Cheers, Karen
What fun blocks! That is going to be such a happy little quilt.
Now, be truthful….isn’t it ALWAYS Christmas at your house!!!
Great idea to start now ; ) Every year I wish I had started earlier ; )
Love the first two blocks. You’re way ahead of the game for Christmas!
These are cute! I love those boots on the snowman. Your embroidery is perfect for the blocks. Are you adding your own phrases?
those are very sweet applique blocks. that reminds me I have a Christmas one for some raw edge applique !

Both these blocks are adorable Karen. My sort of stitching, so must look out for this pattern. Love the background you’ve used also
