So - here at last is my 1998 Christmas Signature quilt that I did through SCQuilters. Finished!
I have had it pieced and wondering how on earth to quilt it for so long.
I am putting up the individual blocks below in the hope that some of the contributers to this quilt will find it . Each block dictated to me a little of how I should quilt it.
The Christmas fabric that came with the signature blocks are cut in two and pieced each side of the block they came with. Each of the Siggie blcks are 6" finished
I used a thin wadding...and it is sewn with Aurofil thread top and bobbin.
