It’s Great in Any Color Theme!
Turn a traditional block into a festive modern quilt with updated quilt-making techniques. This beautiful quilt is one you’ll enjoy for many years to come.
While it’s lovely in Christmas prints, it will be just as wonderful in any color theme. Consider fabrics for any season or simply a color palette you love. See several examples of the block in other colors here.
A free tutorial demonstrates how the basic block goes together. You’ll find it and other info about the quilt here.
