Winter Wonders Quilt



I've added my creation to the Christmas Quilt Show  hosted by
SewCalGal



I still have the quilting to do but I didn't want to miss the chance to show it off!
The Christmas Tree has pom poms and sequins adorning the boughs

Our family, including our faithful rottweiler, forever immortalised in "snow"!



Check out the fuzzy snowflake applique ~
I have no idea what the snow fabric is
but
it works!


Ahh the stars, the snow on the roof and how about all the pinwheels?!
Can you see the ornaments peeking out on the right?

This quilt was partly from a book I won a couple of years ago
and partly flying by the seat of my pants! I can't wait to quilt and  bind it.
