.... for tonight, but thought I'd just show you what I've achieved today. I have always wanted a red and gold quilt for Christmas, so this year I thought I would actually get on with it. I played around on the computer, and came up with this design. When I have done enough blocks, it will have a narrow red border, a wider yellow one with red corner stones and red binding. I would have liked to make it bed size, but haven't got enough fabric, so it will be a throw. Now I am finishing for tonight, thanks everyone who came and played along with me. I hope you've enjoyed your day and got lots done.
Wow...look at what you got done! It looks fabulous! Nice to see some different colors in Christmas quilts!
ReplyDeleteI think it would be just lovely as a throw. Then you can keep it out to use when you are awake!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sponsoring this. I wish there were more participating as I am sure you do. It will catch on.
I'm not sure of the time the puzzle is over. Between the time difference and when you posted it, I just can't seem to get my head wrapped around it. Anyway, when you wake up in the morning maybe I will have it in your email box!
You have done so much today. I like your pinwheel quilt. Red and gold look very rich together. I look forward to next month, and also to seeing what you do with the Fruitcake layer cake. Thank you for this qal. Today just flew by for me.

Well, I haven't gotten so far as sewing for Christmas but I did buy a magazine with some ideas for my postcards.
