Maison de Noel

Ohhhhh my. My mother has worked her magic. My Maison de Noel quilt top has been transformed into a real quilt, and it’s sooooo lovely.

I’ll never get over the transformation from warped, buckling, raveling, maddening quilt top into snuggly, sophisticated, totally-with-it quilt.

And my mother’s getting pretty good with her Gammill.

This top was pieced from a Kaffe Fassett pattern, though I think–I think, because it’s too late at night to go flipping through the books looking for it–that I made this quilt bigger than the original pattern specified. It will fit a queen bed generously. This is for the guest bedroom, with the cushion covers I posted yesterday. And the white iron bedstead, with cut glass finials. Soooooooooo perfect. I just love it.
