Cheery Reindeers.

The trouble with using a blog to catalogue all my work is the randomness of the postings. I suppose I should have been more methodical at the planning stage!

Anyway here is another favourite Christmas quilt, my Cheery reindeers!  Its approximately 60' x 60' and all in plaids.  It has a brushed cotton backing and is a wonderful cuddly quilt. The reindeers have been bondawebbed in place and then blanket stitched around the raw edges by machine. The thread used was YLI Soft Touch.




 Had to have a reindeer with a red nose!




 Whilst making it, I lost one of this ones eyes, so I hand embroidered a cheeky wink. Once finished I found the missing eye!

Approximate date of completion 2005
