Have Yourself a Quilty Little Christmas quilt, finished!


Lori Holt is an awesome designer!
Her first quilt book is called Quilty Fun and it's absolutely fabulous!
I completed Lori's row along, and finished a beautiful quilt that I gave to one of my granddaughters for her bed.
After the row along, Lori surprised her followers (me) with a Christmas sew along called "Have Yourself a Quilty Little Christmas."
Lori hosted the sew along on Instagram!
Most of the blocks were from her book, but she surprised us by throwing some oh so cute! Christmas blocks into the mix.
You can read about my little Christmas quilt journey, here, here, and here.


I said I would get my adorable little quilt quilted in a couple of months, but it's been almost a year later and I finally finished it!!!!
I got busy making heirloom blessing gowns, quilty fun birthday
banners, and the business and joy of everyday life.



I have always wanted a Christmas quilt and couldn't be happier with this one :)
My friend Cindy Paulson quilted it, she's so talented.
Do you see the holly berries and leaves she quilted free hand?







I love the back, it's so perfectly vintage :)
Thank you Michael Miller for creating such adorable Christmas fabric!
See my little snowman label?
I really want to make a snowman table topper or table runner someday.


Here he is a closeup before I sewed his buttons on :)


I know you'll want to make a darling Christmas quilt of your own after you catch the excitement of how much fun I had making mine!
You can go to Lori's instagram account and copy the tutorial if you're interested.
Thanks for reading my blog post and looking at all the photos!
