Quilters look forward to the holiday season all year long! That's because Christmas motifs, especially those created in the country style, look beautiful interpreted in fabric and are fun to stitch. Handcrafted quilts also make great gifts for friends and family. But where can you find enough patterns to keep you happily crafting right up until December 24th? Look no further than Quilted Projects for a Country Christmas. From an "And to All a Good Night Picture" to a "Snow Doll," each design evokes the simpler days of holidays long past. Connie Duran provides advice on a few quilting basics you'll need to know, including transferring patterns and antiquing fabric using tea. Then you can start on a project! Homespun fabric ornaments featuring two favorite sayings, "Let It Snow" and "Merry Merry Merry," will let everyone know how joyful you feel. Hang them on the tree or a wreath, or even from a peg rack or a doorknob. Filled with cinnamon-scented rose hips instead of polyester stuffing, your ornaments will make great party favors and stocking stuffers.
