Here is the Christmas quilt I made for this year. It has the same red and blue fabrics as the one last year but they look very different.
Each block is made of 16 HSTs - 480 of them! I made them with my Wonder Cut Ruler and didn't have any problems. I spent several nights ironing and clipping corners. There were so many pieces.
I didn't have to trim the HSTs, but I did trim the set of 4's and the blocks as I went to make sure everything would line up just so.
I quilted it with loops and snowflakes. It was quick and easy and it goes with the snowflakes on the red fabric. Backed with red minky, it's a big quilt 60 by 72 inches. Perfect for snuggling with this cutie!

What a great Christmas snuggle quilt. I like that the fabrics match last year's quilt. I have yet to try using minky on the long arm. Thanks for sharing Shannon.

ReplyDeleteSo gorgeous! You mixed the fabric prettily and quilted it beautifully (the occasional snowflake adds lots of interest). And I think that your corners are done perfectly.
