Holiday Melodies

If your favorite colors are red and green, you love the bright combinations used in Christmas quilts. Since these are my favorites, I could easily decorate with the colors of Christmas all year long. In fact, I do have quite a collection of red and green quilts.

Add to that a favorite log cabin block, and it couldn't be sweeter. It could be a whole quilt, an eye-catching center or a fabulous border.

After shoveling snow all day, its time for thinking of my loved ones as I sew Christmas gifts. Enjoy the beauty of the day.

p.s. Don't forget to add your Christmas comments to be entered for the Holiday Melodies Pattern Give-away.

Christmas Pattern Give-away

In the spirit of the season, I thought another give-away would be fun. This is my pattern "Holiday Melodies" and measures 55" x 67". It features a unique combination of blocks and a pieced border. Several neutral fabrics make the background sparkle, while rotary cutting make quick work of cutting. Over-sized pieces make it easy to trim blocks to the correct size. (You can click on the photo for a larger view.)

You may not have time to make it this year, but it's never to early to start on next year. To be entered in the give-away, please post a comment about your favorite Christmas idea between now and December 20.
