Christmas Wallhanging

The Fat Quarter shop offered a free Christmas mystery in July and I have been sewing along behind the scenes of other projects. 

I ordered the kit for this mystery since I liked the idea of using a non Christmas line called "Favorite Things" for a Christmas project. There is not a single snowman, Santa, ornament, or reindeer to be found on these fabrics. But the colours are red and green and have a Christmasy feel to them.


This is a row quilt pattern with many pieces to cut and organize. Here is row #2 cut out and ready to sew. As always, the instructions were impeccable and easy to follow.  



Here it is on the design wall. 

It has a plain white border around it now and is ready for quilting.

Four rows, four clues. So fun!

Your mystery quilt is looking awesome. I've saved and printed the instructions, but haven't started this one. I did order the Halloween mystery kit, and made that one this year. The fabrics in the kit were also kind of non-traditional colors, and I love the result.

What a nice design!

It worked up beautifully. I made a couple extra while waiting for the next parts. I need to work on my borders, they are waving. Will you use the rest of the layer cake on the back?

A very fun Christmas mystery.
I have always appreciated holiday quilts that just use holiday colors, but NOT holiday prints.
