Wed, Dec.21st...Solstice greetings to all...on the shortest day of the year. Now we can begin turning toward the light. This is my Santa Puzzle. It IS made from a pattern, rather than just worked from a block idea. It's an older Red Wagon pattern. The pattern maker had a remnent of an old quilt, and worked the pattern based on that old scrap. This was a templated pattern with many, many pieces. The best approach seemed to be to work one FC at a time, and then build the rows. It's harder to photograph this one, as it's quilte long and fairly narrow...28" X 48". Personally I love it..but then I love red and white quilts. You almost have to figure out you are looking at Santas or Father Christmas for it make sense. Not everyone's cup of tea..but it works for me. Machine pieced, hand quilted. And yes, it only has one border, the black, but its being photographed against the backing from the Candle in the Cabin quilt...*VBG*
