Christmas 2012

Merry Christmas to all ! On the eve of Christmas, we thought you might enjoy this beautiful design by Dilys Fronks.  You may know Dilys as the author of Enchanted Views: Quilts Inspired by Wrought-Iron Designs. Many of her quilt designs have been translated into kits, including this depiction of the story of Christmas.

Christmas Banner, 13 x 44".  Design by Dilys Fronks (North Wales, UK); kit by the Creative Iron


This Christmas Banner combines the three most popular Christmas appliqué designs from Dilys Fronks: Nativity, Shepherds and We Three Kings. The kit includes a Kona Cotton laser cut silhouette (a single piece, ready for fusible applique) and instructions for assembly. Also, you can see many more intriguing silhouette designs at Dilys Fronks' website; kits are available for seven different garden gate designs.

    It reminds me of Chinese paper cuttings. There is a Japanese quilter who uses that technique in borders of her quilts.

    Beautiful. I could be wrong, but I think Quilters Paradise is the service provider that creates custom laser kits and created these kits. I love the detail. What a beautiful holiday quilt. Sure hope you enter it in the Quilter's Christmas Show next year (if you didn't enter in the 2012) show.
