Christmas Quilt Show entry
This is my entry for the Christmas Quilt Show. The show is over at SewGalCal's blog. It's a lot of fun so go take a look.Edited: This has been a busy week. Saturday I was in Sue's Christmas Quiltalong and today the Christmas Quilt Show...Sew much fun...Sew little time.
It's called Christmas Town. It is from a Piece o' Cake Designs. I started it in 1999 and finished it in 2001. It is needle turn applique ( my first applique project) and hand quilted. There are lots of little fun embellishments on this quilt. It was a lot of fun to make.

Is this two different patterns? I saw the reindeer and the sled pulling santa and almost bought it but it didn't have all the other patterns that you have in this wall hanging.
