    Your quilt turned out wonderfully! I love the detailed crosstitch.

    What a great quilt. I also quilt and do cross stitch and have some of the same Santas but never thought about "framing" them for a quilt. You're a genius.

    This is absolutely gorgeous. I still cross stitch occasionally and I could have NEVER finished one of these blocks in a month. You did an amazing job on this quilt. I love it!

    That's beautiful. I do counted cross stitch too and can hardly believe you managed to get each one done in a month's time. You are amazing. I have a lot of Leisure Arts magazines from years past and think I remember some of those Santa's - will have to look through them - you give me inspiration!

    Nice use of both techniques for a nice Christmas quilt.

    That is absolutely beautiful!! I'm a Santa collector and I do cross stitching.
    I can relate to the time it took to do both the stitching and quilting.
    Thanks so much for sharing. Hugs, Sharon

    Your quilt is beautiful. I loved cross stitching also, but the eyes don't like focusing on such small detail any more.
