Christmas Quilt

Today I have an early Christmas in July project to share with you. A simple Christmas quilt.

This simple Christmas quilt is perfect for snuggling up with your kids and reading Christmas books, or listening to Christmas music, or just looking at the lights on the tree.

I actually made this quilt a while ago, but homeschooling took top priority for a while. I used a bunch of different fabrics that I loved together.
I backed it with cream and used a red binding. I love how that just makes the binding pop. I quilted it with a large all over loop pattern.
I love this quilt, it has me wishing for Christmas and all of the traditions and fun that comes with it. But at the same time not the snow, we had a super long winter up here by the north border and I am loving my sunshine and warmth right now!
The pattern comes from Moose on the Porch Quilts book Simply Charming Two, but I added the red square in the middle to tie my red border and binding together with it all. That book is out of print right now, but you can click on the link to see some of her other books that are very user friendly and quick, easy, beautiful quilts.
This is really a big quilt, it is roughly 72"x72". I am also selling it if you are interested please shoot me an email and I can give you more information!

Enjoy!
