It's no secret that I love Kate Spain's fabrics. I also love a good Christmas project. So a couple of years ago when one of the major quilting magazines featured a Christmas project with Kate Spain fabric, I jumped at the chance. Somewhere/somehow I snagged a Kate Spain jelly roll and slowly got to work on putting together the Snowflake Star quilt!
Fast forward a couple of years (yup...it really takes me that long) and I finally finished one! (This mind you was after quite a few issues with it that at one point made me seriously consider giving up quilting). Anyways, it got quickly quilted and bound in order to give to a quilty friend for Christmas. She loves the color blue, and it's not everyday you find a holiday themed quilt that's got blue in it.
It's not too large - maybe about 38" square, but I think it's fun!
Should I even mention that one jelly roll makes four stars total? Yup...that's a true statement. But, in an effort to get some of my unfinished projects done, I soldiered on and finished the three additional tops. They're currently sitting in the pile of projects that need to be sandwiched! Perhaps one more will get done by next Christmas?
