Christmas decorating

I love looking at other people's Christmas decorating on their blogs, so today I am going to show you my Christmas decorating. I'll start off with my Christmas/Winter quilt.


I think I made it 2 or 3 years ago with whatever new Moda 3 Sisters Christmas fabrics were out at the time. I had a really dense batting put in this quilt to keep me warm at night as my bedroom is pretty chilly in the winter. And I'm happy to say that I haven't been cold at night since.

Here are pictures of several Christmas wall hangings that I've made through the years.




Here is the Eleanor Burns Diamond Log Cabin Christmas tree skirt that I made when my oldest daughter was 6 months old. I also made my Mom and my MIL each one for Christmas that year. I put ruffles on theirs and cut the holes out and put ties on them. On mine I just wasn't able to cut a hole in it, so I didn't. I have very rarely used it for a skirt and most of the time it is on a table or thrown on a chair.


I quilted all of these projects myself and I did it with babies and young children running around. Also hubby traveled A LOT during this time. I must have done it in the evenings when the kids were sleeping. I do remember setting DD #1 on a blanket next to me and sewing up a storm. LOL She loves fabric and quilting now so it must have rubbed off on her early!

I also have 4 trees up this year, 1 big and 3 small Charlie Brown like trees. The silver tree has vintage ornaments on it from when I was young. That's weird to think that I'm vintage.




I think I'm running out of room, but I'll continue tomorrow. Enjoy the day!
