Judy's BOM

The big decision has been made.......I'm officially joining Judy's Block of the Month quilt group. Here is my fabric selection and it is looking very Christmasy, but it all came from my stash. My stash consists mainly of small pieces of fabric - one yard or less. It is very easy for me to find enough fabric for a scrappy quilt, but finding large pieces for the borders is a challenge. This quilt will end up being partially scrappy, especially the center stars. And the outer border will be the Thimbleberries Christmas fabric (which I bought a while back to make a tablecloth).

Thanks Judy for your generosity in sharing this quilt and your excellent instructions.

Good for you Bonnie! I can't wait to see what you're making. You can use 4 different fabrics for the border, it's the liberated way! hee hee

Love that Christmas print in the front. I can see this quilt looking lovely with a Christmas colour theme.

Nice fabric selection! I like the woodsy print a lot.

I had thought about doing this BOM, but my attention span isn't up to it :)
