The Great I AM

Instructions

For machine quilting, I used the star-flower for the quilt squares, and traditional and non-traditional feathers for the borders, as taught by Ann in Beyond Basic Machine Quilting.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Functional

For: Children

Style: Holiday


Materials

100% cotton fabric, Hobb's wool batting, 004 Monofilament Sulky thread for the top, cotton and polyester threads for the bobbin.

What was your inspiration?

The bright colours in this quilt kit, and my grandchildren's love of the Christmas story, inspired me to make this quilt.

What are you most proud of?

I am most proud of the quilting techniques I learned and applied.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is a very simple pattern. When cutting the story squares , be careful to cut so you don't lose the printed words in your seam allowance.
