My Christmas Quilt



Here it is.......












This is The Christmas Story Quilt by Annie Downs .... with a difference. I love to embellish...I love to embroider. So I decided to make this quilt in totally different colours to what Annie uses in her quilts...I carnt say Im that happy with the colours in my quilt but .... this is the first quilt I have ever finished. It has a very special story behind it. I
Christmas is a very special time for us as a family. I love to make memories for our children at this time of the year...and for myself too :-) I love to make crafts, cards, decorations and handmade gifts....I love to play christmas carols through the day. Im abit of a family girl...I love having my husband and children around. On Christmas Day I love to see my little children open their presents....what a joy that is to see!! In recent days my little girl and I have been doing things together, we have really been having fun....today we are off to the $2 Shop to do some shopping!!

Merry Christmas to you

Hugs Lisa

Thank you for sharing the story behind your quilt - I love the concept of stitched memories, and blogged about it myself. Your quilt is a really positive achievement, and evidence of your journey back to health - quite a wonderful thing, really! I also find making things really therapeutic - it has helped me through some dark days, too.

Hi Lisa

Your Quilt is just too scrummy for words. Makes me want to quit stitching and start quilting right now.
