I've gotten quite a few emails lately wondering about my "ornaments table runner" -- and it took me awhile to figure out that these quilters meant the
Vintage Holiday Quilt pattern by Camille. I looked at the pattern again recently, and remembered how fun and easy it was to make. Here's the quilt I made in 2012:
And here are some blocks that I made yesterday:
This is such a quick Christmas Project! I think I'm going to make a few of these in the next few weeks. I have a booth at the
No Coast Holiday Craft-o-rama this year (so excited!) -- and I'd like to have a few Christmas quilts completed by then to sell.
For this quilt, I used a Kate Spain 12 Days of Christmas jelly roll that I've had for a few years. I had to modify a few of the blocks, since I only had 2 1/2 inch strips to work with. And unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to find this fabric anymore -- so I can't make the sashing in coordinating fabric. What a dilemma! Lesson learned -- don't hoard fabric for too long!

Gorgeous fabrics for these blocks!
ReplyDeleteThat Christmas ornaments quilt is adorable. Is it really a "quick and easy" project? It doesn't look quick or easy!
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable and I love that you used a jelly roll!! I have a few jelly roll but struggle with how to not make them look like jelly rolls blocks. Does that make sense? :)
ReplyDeleteI have this pattern and need to make this ASAP. It's so cute.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and good luck with your craft show!
ReplyDeleteThose look adorable! I bet the quilts will sell well at the show and I feel your pain on lovingly holding on to fabric, and then not being able to find something that goes with it!
ReplyDeleteWhat great Christmas ornament blocks and I really like your cute little helper.
