Many thanks for all the nice words about my Tree's Up quilt. The pattern source: I had to dig a bit because I have to admit (sheepishly) that I borrowed a friend's pattern (she has made THREE of these now). The full name of the pattern is Tree's Up Lights On. The designer is Sandy Gervais and the pattern company is Pieces from My Heart.
I'm not usually into making quilts from commercial patterns but this one just blew me away. It's a stack and slash-type pattern, like the Crazy Nine patch. It was easy to do--I had the top pieced in a weekend. And I love, love, love it. It's Christmas-y without hitting you over the head with Ho-Ho-Ho.
And think of the non-Christmas possibilities: fall colors, winter colors, varying greens...
