BLOGGERS QUILT FESTIVAL




Here is my entry, I made this quilt a couple of years ago, it's my own design and it's my warm, snuggly winter quilt.



I bought the fabrics while on our first holiday to the snow and wanted to make a quilt to remember this holiday. Unfortunately I didn't have enough of one of the fabrics but when my Mother and Father In Laws saw how much fun we had at the snow, they booked a holiday for the next month and I asked them to get me some more as it was an old line and I couldn't find the fabric online.
Thnaks for looking and don't forget to click on the link above to see some amazing quilts.
