Christmastide in FONS & PORTER’S EASY QUILTS (Winter 2013)

Hello Friends, I have been waiting for my Christmastide table topper, featured in Fons & Porter’s Easy Quilts Winter 2013, to return to me from the editor.  Christmastide will be my second last Christmas project I am sharing with you for 2013.

This table topper uses the concept of adding fabrics to a single block to make a full quilt, making the block the focus of one’s visual attention.

The fabrics I used for the project are from RJR‘s Claridge Manor.  The elegant foliage and berry print fabrics are my favorites.

Quilting is done free-motion using Aurifil Mako Cotton 50 threads over Hobbs Tuscany Silk batting.

Here you see the quilting motif in the quilt center, front and back.

You can purchase the magazine issue here, or here.

You can purchase the digital pattern here.

You can purchase the quilt kit here.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I hope you have enjoyed your Christmastide season.  Have a lovely week ahead.
