I have to agree about the worst Christmas ever..if not..it ranks as one of the Worst!!!
Not much money for Christmas, in fact, I think it will go down in history as the worst ever. Decided to make some Christmas Quilts for gifts. 5 simple quilts in one week. 2 for grandkids, 1 for DIL Mother and 2 for friends. Thanks for looking and have a wonderful Christmas, my quilty friends !!

Very, very nice. I love Christmas fabric, that's probably why I have a lot of it, but my budget will keep me from getting more, making me use what I have. Just made a tree skirt from 6" squares from a Christmas swap at my Guild about 8 or more years ago, so I had a lot of unique Christmas squares and the tree skirt came out very nice, now to finish it. I saw a tutorial on Missouri Star Quilts with a great Christmas tree skirt made with squares, think I'll try to finish my skirt their way.

Beautiful quilts. I love all Christmas fabrics and I 'd love if one of them was given to me.
The love you put in each one is the real important gift at all. They will treasure it forever.
Whishing you a Happy New Year.

Very nice. We didn't have a lot of $$ either and I made everything from my stash and everyone loved it and we had a great time. Love all the Christmas quilts. I didn't have time to make me one this year, but may yet in the next couple of weeks and then next year I will have a new to me quilt for the holidays that I forgot I made.lol

Carol, Thanks for asking. Here aRE my notes. cut 5 strips at 6 1/2 inches by width of fabric , cut 10 strips at 4 inches by width of fabric and 10 strips at 2 1/2 inches by width of fabric. These are the three fabrics the pattern calls for. Measured roughly 50 X 70 . You can find this pattern by searching on Google quick donation quilt, it's by the st croix quilters. I did not quilt as you go and I used warm & white batting. Hope this helps you.
