Quilting...

I'm starting to work on Christmas gifts already. I'm hoping if I start now I won't be rushing at the last minute to finish everything like last year. Most of our gifts will be hand made this year, my most ambitious project will be a quilt for my parents. I'm planning on making the color wheel quilt from Joelle Hoverson's Last Minute Patchwork and Quilted Gifts.

Last year my mom and I were in Purl Soho and they had this quilt hanging on the wall behind the register. My mom kept saying how beautiful it was and according to the book, it is supposed to be relatively easy to make. Plus it will help get rid of some of the many fabric scraps I have stashed away! I'll keep you posted on the outcome!
