The Fat Quarter Shop invited me to join their new Vintage Christmas Sew Along, which is based around the new Christmas book by Lori Holt. I couldn't resist! I love Lori's work.
Vintage Christmas is a wonderful book, especially if you love Christmas sewing. The cover quilt is just beautiful but not only do you get the instructions to make this quilt, but lots of other smaller projects, based on the blocks in the book.
In Australia, we don't need quilts at Christmas, but it's always nice to have some handmade, quilty things to decorate our homes, don't you think?
My block today is called Jingle Bells. After the initial cutting, the block came together in about 10 minutes. It's that quick and easy! I'm thinking of making a few more and using them in a long Christmas table runner for my dining table.
The fabric which I used is called Cozy Christmas which is also by Lori Holt for Riley Blake Designs. It was released a couple of years ago but you can still find it at the Fat Quarter Shop.
Here are the other creative people joining the Vintage Christmas Quilt Along.
