They are both beautiful and clearly well worth the time and patience you have put into this project. My favourite, I have to say, is the Wizard Santa.
Thanks Dennis, he was a challenge to do as there were so many steps. I am glad you like him. Love and blessings Chris
Chris your Santa Quilt is awesome! I love his texture for his beard, and the fabrics are gorgeous! I hope to be just like you when I grow up! LOL
But for now I'll just enjoy the beautiful quilts you make. Your work is a treasure for sure!
Huggs and
Thanks so much Maryann, I love doing this sort of thing and applique is one of my all time favourite applications. Love Chris
I loved your santas 2 years ago and these are gorgeous too. I admire the designs and most of all your patience in stitching and cutting!
I bought the original designs in 2011 and sewed them on and off for a while. I was so glad when I saw she had 3 more and even gladder that I didn't finish the quilt! Only 3 to go!!!! Love Chris
this is a beautiful quilt Chris & I can relate to the time it takes having done a cross stitch recently that took 108 min but took 3 hrs to do but it is sew worth the extra effort! ~Hugs Loralye~
Thanks Loralye, yes it is a time consuming quilt, but one which I hope will last a long time. Love Chris
I love this Does it have my name on it? ha ha wishful thinking
I want one! If that does not tell you! Where did the designs come from please. I think I may have seen some and what is the image area?
Sorry Chris, you can't have mine! He he! The designs are from Evy Hawkins at A Bit of Stitch. I put the website down in Marianb's post earlier. Love Chris
They are made in the 5x7 hoop and I have made the size of each piece 9 1/4 x 11 1/4. Love Ch
