Christmas Graffiti Quilting

December 18, 2015

Christmas, Free Motion Quilting, LKennedyGood Morning, Quilters!

Today’s quilt (20 x 20″) began last December as a practice piece to try out new motifs–do you recognize any?  Some never made it to the Tuesday Tutorial lineup…

Christmas, Free Motion Quilting, LKennedy

As I was cleaning my sewing room, I thought this would make a great “stream of consciousness” quilt like the blue one I made HERE.

Several readers said it reminded them of Karlee Porter’s Graffiti quilts.

Graffiti Quilting has a much better ring to it than stream of consciousness quilting, so I think I will adopt this term as well–

unless YOU can come up with our own term???

We could call it “Where’s Waldo? Quilting”...

Can you find:

Mistletoe

Holly

Evergreens

The Pretty Package

As you may have noticed, I am offering 50% Off Divide and Conquer Creative Quilting until the New Year…

Wouldn’t it be a great gift–add a spool of thread and a package of Topstitch needles…

A FAVOR TO ASK…

If you’ve watched my Craftsy video, please take a few minutes to leave a review…it can make the difference when others are wondering whether or not to purchase…

I’m really grateful to anyone who writes reviews…and so far we have ALL FIVE STAR reviews!  Woo Hoo!

Hope you find a little time to quilt or doodle today!

    Very creative, this would be fun to do for every holiday! I do have one question-Where do you begin to quilt? To me it would seem to be the center, but not sure that is correct. Love your imagination, too! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

      I don’t think it matters very much where you start.

    Thank-you for sharing all your Christmas vase quilts, I think they are just perfect for people like me who give up on one idea and start on another. I think they could be called the grasshopper quilts, hopping from one idea to the next. Thank-you for everything this year, you have achieved so much and I have learned so much. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Lori.
