Jingle Jingle

 Finally finished this year's Christmas quilt!  This is the Flower Chain pattern from Missouri Star Quilt Company.  The instructions were very clear and easy to follow.  I used a solid black fabric from Moda as the background; Snowflake Glacier from the Snowed In line by Heather Peterson for Riley Blake Designs for the border & the chain; the teal dot from the Snowed In line for the binding; the flower petals were charm packs called Jingle from Hello My Name Is for Robert Kaufman - I did used another snowman line of fabric in the flowers as there were not enough dark blue charms to make all of the flowers; and the backing was pieced from 2 lines of the Pixie Noel fabric from Riley Blake Designs.

I really like the quilt now that it is completed.  I have a difficult time sewing with dark solid fabrics, but I pushed through and like the results.

I used an edge to edge pantograph from Linda Taylor called Geometric Pinwheel to quilt this project.  I used a variegated thread on the top & a teal on the bobbin.

I named the quilt Jingle Jingle after the charm pack that I used.  I hope you give this pattern a try.  You can find it at Missouri Star Quilt Company Flower Chain.

Have fun working on your holiday projects!

Quilt finished at 76" x 85"
