It's Not too Early to Think of Christmas

Connie and Kate are my models for new Christmas Aprons.
When I was in Georgia visiting my sister, I found this Christmas panel from Mary Engelbreit's collection at Beaver Creek Quilt Company. The panel is from the Isn't Christmas Jolly line by Moda. I used the large portion of the panel to make an adult apron. The three smaller panels can be used for quilt labels, trim or on a child's apron, like I did. The panel also has red polka dots and if you cut carefully you can use the dots for trim.



Now on to my next Christmas project. I'm using Jelly Rolls to make a Christmas quilt from...yes...the same collection of Mary Engelbreit's Isn't Christmas Jolly. This will be the first time I've worked with the jelly rolls and I'm looking forward to this project.

Hi Rebecka, the aprons are so cute and you'll love the jelly rolls. You'll have the quilt done in no time. Makes me just want to cut 2 1/2" strips to have in my stash.
Keep Stitchen'
