Christmas Eve Charming Breezes


Finally getting some Christmas sewing done. Per usual, if it's going to get done, it needs to be a quick pattern and that is exactly what Charming Breezes quilt pattern is - quick and fun using a charm pack/precut 5" squares, a little background, and bit of a favorite print for side borders.


We couldn't decide between green and red so I made two at a time and went with both border options - one for us and one to gift.


Identical straight-line quilting on each - straight lines quilted about 1/2" apart. My #1 tip for doing this quilting - focus on keeping the quilt square with the wall or your table and not so much on keeping the lines straight. When I started doing this, my lines drastically improved.


Christmas Eve fabric by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics is so, so pretty. This border print is my favorite.


I think my favorite part (other than it's simplicity) about the Charming Ripples pattern is the movement that is created down the center of this table runner quilt.

  

Side-by-side view of the two different colored borders. oh! I think I'm partial to the green.


Such a simple quilted table runner to make and quilt yet so pretty and striking.


Sweet little quilt roll - just because I like quilt rolls : )

Happy quilting : )
