Christmas Favorites quilt.....

This quilt is called "Christmas Favorites" from the book of the same name by Nancy Halvorsen.  I wish the picture did it justice.  Many of the blocks are 3D with many embellishments added like buttons, ribbons, holly leaves, the Poinsettia inner peddles and decorations on the tree.  I used lots of colorful metallic thread throughout.  Now for the fun part of adding batting, backing, quilting and binding.  I just love all of the bright colors.

This is the poinsettia block before I added the buttons.  Just to show the raised petals......

This is the Joy block with a red button for the nose and silver metallic threads on the snow flakes, the Joy part and above the antlers.......
