Recently I purchased some Fruitcake fabric, supplemented it with a bit of Figgy Pudding & today added the borders to my new Christmas decoration for 2010. Each year I add something new & I really loved this pattern from Kate Conklin. I had never tried the "stack & whack" method before, but it was great fun & there were really quick results...just need to quilt it & I am done! Even better was that I could buy the pattern as a PDF...not happy with mail order at present...things seem to go missing...glad to do it as a file instead!
It was really scary when Chookyblue blogged on Wednesday that it is only four months 'til Christmas...eek! This year is whizzing by too fast! Oh well, at least there will be a nice new quilt hanging in my entry! Just need to quilt it!!!!

Didn't it turn out well. Your Christmas guests will have a nice cheerful welcome to your home with your new quilt hanging in the entrance.
Looks great - I love the different shapes.. I agree mail service - I seem to be waiting forever and some of the things I have sent have gone too...... Hugz

I love all those different trees.
Well done on being organised.
I really liked this pattern - lovely fabrics too!
hey that looks great, what a jump start on the Christmas quilting huh! well done you...
Love this pattern. I must try the stack n whack!!! (just another thing to add to my list!) You are so organised having this done 4 months before Christmas but how scary is that thought??? Luckily Mum produces my new Christmas decorations or it may be on hold for some time!
