Christmas quilt




At the AQS show in Des Moines, I purchased a kit of Christmas flannel for a very cozy quilt.
The Primitive Gathering booth was quite crowded and I spotted the fabric in another lady's arm and then saw the sample made up using the very simple + already owned book Turning Twenty-Book 2. Another shopper was also purchasing a kit also. No time for indecision. Not many left. One came home with me. Stay posted. How many days till Christmas???
