Adorn

Gotta love quick and easy projects! That's certainly the case with Adorn,
Adorn, in holiday fabrics, from the Make Wall Quilts

 a pattern from the December Book of the Month Selection, Make Wall Quilts. (affiliate link)

Created by Camille Roskelley, Adorn makes for a really nice wall decoration, or even a table topper.

 I also liked how this was quilted simply, and kept with that theme on mine.

With pale green Glide thread, the quilting echoes the diamond and triangle shapes, with a 3/4" space, followed by an inner 1/2" space, leaving the centers open.

 All of the background triangles have the same spacing, as do the upper and lower borders.

 Overall, a fun project, not only for the holidays but for any time. Though I cut strips from fat quarters, this is a perfect project to use up strip scraps. I'm sure we could all use lots of ideas for that - consider this one!

 Happy Quilting!

      Thanks Tish! I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. Currently, it's displayed as a table topper, and is very refreshing!

    Hi Susan,
    What a cute little wall hanging. I seem a number of them lately, and think I need to make a few in the new year to brighten up my sewing space. I love the quilting on this, not to mention the fabrics. It looks very festive. ~smile~ Roseanne
