I love it when people share their ideas and Charlotte from the Houston area brought this idea to show me and I LOVED it! She bought Christmas trees for each of her Grandchildren and she made a little tree skirt for each child and every year she adds a different item to the skirt. The ideas and shapes and embellishments are awesome. Such a clever idea and it is a story quilt Christmas skirt. Don't you wish your Grandmother had made one that you could touch and enjoy and show off? Well, maybe you know a child you could make one for and you would both be very happy!
I had more photos and they disappeared from this post and my file...Charlotte, feel free to send me images if you can. This is so cute. Be sure to click on the photo so you can see the details.
This blog is meant to be a place to come and enjoy quilts with color, easy piecing, story quilts, laughter with a joke or two, a little wisdom,stories with sentiment, an editorial or two,encouragement to pay it forward, the idea that NICE is a good thing, some crafts, family, friends work, some painting, cooking and decorating and alot of creativity and invention from Mary Lou who is an author, designer, teacher, quilter, and Grandma- CORRECT email- Lattegirl@aol.com
