Winter's Lane {Quilt}

"In seed time learn, in harvest teach, in winter enjoy." 
 ~William Blake


Winter's Lane.  My favorite fabric.



I love a lot of fabrics, but this line just makes me sigh.


Thanks to Julie's pattern Spirograph, I have a Christmas quilt this year!



I hope that I did it well enough to be a "Winter" quilt too!
I used the pantograph Glacee to scatter snowflakes all about!


But honestly, I don't care if its a winter quilt or not...
it matches my family room and it is out all the time!!!
I confess, I did not pick up yardage from the Winter's Lane for the backing.  I regret it actually.


But I did incorporate a bit of the panel that came with my fat quarter bundle.

 
I am sure it could be used for something more unique, but I like it just the way it is.
I plan on embroidering a little something in one of the little "cards"

The text screamed "use me, use me" for the binding.


We all love it sooo much!


Even Button with his cinnamon roll covered face!

  1. It's lovely! I have kicked myself more than once for not buying backing fabric from the line. I think 'I can get that on sale later...' but inevitably, I forget, or the print I want is sold out, or not on sale, or....
