Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

What was your inspiration?

I wanted something fun yet festive for the table on the verandah for Christmas as we are having a BBQ with the family.

What are you most proud of?

This is my own design. I was inspired at first by the christmas tree fabric and wanted to use the trees then I found an old santa gift tag and made the pattern for the santa. The pattern is available in the craftsy pattern store.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

You could piece the background with whatever light christmas coloured fabric to the size you want then add as many decorations as fit

Brilliant! I love the Santas! (And I love the idea of your BBQ at Christmas - I'm green with envy as I sit here, shivering!). Merry Christmas to you!
