Lovely Tis the Season quilt

Just thought I would share this delightful version of "Tis the Season". It has been stitched by Barbara, who comes to my classes at the shop on Wednesday nights. She has only been stitching these for a short while and here is her finished quilt top! Doesn't it look great? Barbara has used some of the French General fabrics for her borders.

We were all very motivated by seeing this quilt top!
Happy stitching.
Sylvia
