Everything you guys are doing is really making me want to make this quilt! Janet is one of my all-time favorite quilters! But I keep letting myself get side-tracked from what I need to do so nothing ends up getting finished. I'm going to try to keep my resolve and not join you, but am very much enjoying everything that you guys are doing! Keep up the good work, and keep sharing for those of us on the sidelines! Nancy

Ditto!!!!! And now Rita has gone and made my mind start churning. But my list of quilts to be made this year is sooooooo long. How can I squeeze in another?

I was already thinking, okay, maybe half-size, but Christmas? Oh my! Maybe I could somehow turn it into the advent calendar quilt I've been promising myself I'd make for my DGDs … but then the letters are my favorite part of this quilt. Such dilemmas!

PS: Margo, you're looking great!

AndreeBergeron OFFLINE Posts: 722 Thank you received: 100	Rita, I think this quilt lends itself to many theme depending on the colors and embellishments (still haven't decide mine - seaside, flying creatures - that's why I haven't put the stars yet) , and I can't wait to see you Christmas version!

I was having a close look at this quilt this morning and it struck me that one could do it in Christmasy fabrics and it would be a really great Christmas quilt. You could change up the flowers in the border to poinsettia, or Christmas lights and the stars are already appropriate. One could leave out the border and it would be a lovely Christmas wall-hanging too. My resolve has slipped.....I can't help it.....I've got to give in and do it. But I am going to try to get one other UFO finished each month too. (Don't hold me to that will you?

)

P. S. I blame Margo for daring me.
