The "Think Christmas" Blog Hop is in full swing~ I hope you've been visiting blogs and getting inspired! :-)
I sure have! Today I am on the schedule and I made a this little quilt~
I had a lot of fun playing around with the design. The tree is a quilting stencil I traced and then embroidered.
It doesn't really shine in this photo, but I had a ball playing with the bling! LOL All the ornaments are hot fix crystals. ;-) Playing in my Christmas fabrics is always fun, but especially on these hot summer days.
The hop continues today at these blogs~
Crazy 'boutquilts (you are here)
I hope you get a chance to visit each of them. :-)
Many thanks go to Mdm Samm @ !Sew WE Quilt! who came up with the idea for this hop. And to Lesley @ the Cuddle Quilter who flew with it~ organizing all the quilters in blogland for one of the biggest shows around! Thanks ladies!
Until next time~
Happy Quilting!

Nice! I'm afraid I am one quilter though who rarely thinks about Christmas at this time of year. I guess that is why I have very few Christmas quilts.

You've created a beautiful block and the swirl tree is one of my favorite 'looks'. The bling addition really makes it so much prettier.
What a sweet block!! I love the embroidered tree!! How did you do the little red rectangles? I may copy this pattern. Simple is my kind of piecing...clean, crisp, pretty...just the way I like it.
