It's absolutely spectacular ... and that says a lot, as I often don't like bargellos, but this one has really excited me. You sure got the right colours/fabrics that blend/gradate to be ever-so effective.

Now, I hope you have a perfect border fabric to keep the elegance and charm of this beauty.

I just posted this on Pictures, but I made this from an old sweater. Used flannel for batting and backing.

They are so beautiful. Loved them all. Have a friend who would die for the penguins. Great job!

How unique to combine Christmas with the memory photos ... what a special quilt to bring out at Christmas time each year.

Do you do these as a summary of what happened during the year?
Or does each tell the life story of an individual or couple?
Or perhaps, are they a just Christmas photos?

You have me intrigued!

It's beautiful, I love it. Thanks for sharing. I'll have to find the Christmas sampler quilt I won at my Quilt Guild a few years ago and if I can I'll try to send a picture. I was so lucky that year, I won the Christmas quilt, then won second prize - a twin size red knitted afghan at my church fair the next month. Bought a lottery ticket, but guess my luck had run out. LOL

They are all so pretty. There's at least one Christmas quilt on each of our beds. I was even able to fulfill my daughter's wish and made a pink Christmas quilt! I will try and post some of them. Great topic to follow!
