Getting Ready for Christmas



 I will be teaching this adorable snowman wall hanging this Saturday. 




The kit for this snowman is included in the price of the class and we will be having a potluck lunch. It promises to be a great day for all.


We have started getting the shop ready for Christmas.


I love decorating for the holidays!


 On December 8th Quilt Vine will be having a Christmas Open House.


We will have demos and snacks throughout the day.


We have Gift Cards; the perfect gift for your quilting friends. 


We are also offering Sit and Sew Days. Need a break from all of the hustle and bustle of the season? Come spend the day sewing with us at Quilt Vine.






 Don't forget the Snowman class is this Saturday.

Christmas Quilts


These 2 Christmas quilts were made by Mary Lou.




I also made this quilt last year. 


I really like how the overall ribbon quilting looks on this quilt.


This quilt has ribbon and holly quilted in the background but it is a little difficult to see it.


I made this Christmas Tree Quilt 2 years ago and posted it here.


Mary Lou did a great job on both of them!

Decorating with Christmas Quilts

 Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I thought I had this post scheduled for December 24 but I just saw that it never posted. So, here are some more Christmas quilts.

 I love decorating with quits. 
I think the ball fringe really adds something to this quilt.

 This log cabin was one of my very first quilts It was made in 1998.
I made it so long ago that I hand quilted it.

 This quilt that is under the family room Christmas tree I pieced in 1980 when I was 19 years old. I didn't take a class or anything. Of course back then I used cardboard templates and scissors to cut the squares and triangles. I never quilted it and did not attempt another quilt until the 90s This quilt was one of the first to be quilted on my longarm in 2004.
 This little quilt is a stack-n-whack. I think it was made about 2002.

 I think I made this quilt in 2008. I did a lot of quilting on this one. The mistake I made here was that the red on the front should have been a solid. The quilting shows up better on the back.

 I just love this tree quilt I made last year. The lime green quilting looks great in the red.

 With all of the pictures I have posted of my Christmas decorating I almost forgot this cute little tree. It is in the upstairs bathroom. I do not go upstairs very often except to wake my daughter for school.

Here is wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas!
