    • Description

    This bed quilt is easy to piece for the intermediate quilter. With a patchwork background of nine-patch and snowball blocks, basic applique shapes are added to create a Christmas theme.

    Omit the applique or change the Holly leaves out for a maple or oak leaf with colors to match to create a Fall quilt instead. Or even make it for a table!

    An endless amount of possibilities.
