    Here are the first three blocks for my Christmas quilt. I love mking this quilt, as each block represents something and the sentiments are great.

    The first block is hospitality, the second one is prosperity and the last one is friendship. I still need to do the applique in the second one, there is going to be four holly leaves in the light squares, but all the piecing is done.

    I made that quilt a couple of years ago and I love it. I still have it hanging in my den even though Christmas is way over. Your blocks look great.

    I had the fabric for a couple of years already, bought it back in December 2008, but didn't start the quilt until last December. I'm commited to finishing it before this Christmas!
