A finish!

Home for the Holidays.  What a lovely name for a quilt and so lovely to finally have this quilt finished!  It has been kicking around for 11 years.  Eleven years!  OMG!

This quilt will be perfect for hanging in our foyer come Christmas this year.  A treasure, for sure.

Details:  97" x 97" approx. (before quilting:  100-1/2" x 101")
Pattern Source:  That Patchwork Place, 2006 Quilt Calendar.
Machine quilted by Ruth Jones

Now what is the next top to be quilted?  There are only 26 tops to choose from.  I'm sure I will find one to finish!  :o)

Have a great day!

That looks fantastic! Great Christmas quilt. Eleven years is not so bad.

Maybe you should rename it - Mint Candy. I agree with Hetty, 11 years isn't all that long.

It's a beautiful quilt.....and isn't 'finished' a good feeling! Love the cottage pic.
