Day 13 of my Christmas Countdown and it's my Holiday Patchwork Forest quilt.
This quilt still makes me smile because it started out as just a few test blocks from scraps in my stash. I didn't have an overall colour plan before I started, but I really like how it's turned out.
I did some basic machine quilting on it, but then accentuated the trees with hand quilting. Both Kaffe Fassett borders were from my stash, and the thin red strip border adds a finishing Christmas touch.
It's another small lap type quilt that I can drape over a chair or table at Christmas.
I used a pattern from Amy Smart of Diary of a Quilter. She has a lot of Christmas quilt patterns on her blog.

Very cute winter quilt, it doesn't shout Christmas so you can leave it out all 'summer?" Happy stitching!
What a pretty little quilt! I really like the color combinations!
