No new fabrics were purchased in the making of this quilt. It was a fun scrap buster for me. The backing fabric I purchased from my local quilt guild for $1 per yard over a year ago.
Another fun thing about this quilt is that my quilty BFF, Julianne of Quilting with Calicos blog, and I chose to do it together. We've only met through QA's and blogs, but doing things like this makes the distance from Ohio to California much closer.
I just love all the random, scrappy goodness! 2.5" squares rock! The snowmen have button eyes.
I used my Circle Lord Egyptian Eye template board for the quilting. This little steamy heart applique swirl is one of my favorite details.
The red door was perfect for the little cabin.
Since the entire quilt top was made with scraps I am linking up with Cynthia at Quilting is more fun than housework... for the Oh Scrap! linky party this week.
Before all the binding was sewn to the quilt it had already been claimed by our 7-year old. He's so proud of HIS new quilt.
The back of the quilt isn't very exciting. I got this reindeer print at our local quilt guild sale for $1 per yard.
