plus quilt

I'm finally sharing my finished Christmas plus quilt with you all! I got it back from the long armer 2 weeks before Christmas & got the binding all sewn on sitting under it one chilly afternoon. I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. The biggest quilt I've made so far, it's nice & long perfect for naps, festive & oh so, cuddly!! :)

  
                                     


 



I used 5+ charm packs in the top & just arranged them in a pleasing plus design.



I pieced the back with coordinating yardage & a strip of extra charm squares.







 Here's a close up shot where you can really see the snowflake quilting.



Before I go I need to share with you this little tree quilt made up for Christmas as well. I had to 
hang something in place of the modern maples mini. :)



And remember that little penguin mug rug I sent off in the mug rug swap? Well here is the gorgeous beauty I received in return!!! It's more of a mini quilt really & I've been enjoying on my wall. No mug will set on this!;)  

Happy sewing!!
