It's beginning to look and smell like Christmas around our house......
Twinkle lights, carols, and baking my family favorites.

AND
Cranberry-White Chocolate Chip Cookies
And .....
On top of all that decorating and baking I managed to get
a little sewing time in.
a little sewing time in.
My first attempt at a 2 fabric/color binding.
On the printed side of my flannel I attached a solid pink
and on the solid pink side it is printed.
Did that make sense?
I used these instructions but cut my binding strips 1/4" larger
to allow for the bulky flannel.
It definitely takes a bit longer to prepare the binding
but I love the effect on the quilt.
This is actually two pieces of flannel quilted and bound for a
Christmas present.
I can't wait to use this technique again.....
give it a try.
Here's a wool and cotton customer quilt I finished this week.
BEAUTIFUL!
The pattern is "Merry Christmas"
