Christmas House



It is Christmas Eve. One of the last gifts I made was a Christmas House hanging quilt for my sister. It was my own design based on the basic house pattern.

I had a lot of fun with it, and it stitched up faster than I thought. I still do not do machine quilting, so I assembled it by machine, but hand-quilted it freehand.

I do not need to worry that my sister will see the picture of her gift before she opens it. She does not have a computer or a cell phone, does not send or receive emails, does not surf the web or read blogs online. Her idea of high-tech is a pre-paid phone card.

Oh, and she does have a fax machine.
