My Whoville quilt didn't make it for Christmas, but it did get finished yesterday.
The Village Tree:
This would be my house; the cake (eating) queen.
I love this little pink one too
The binding posed a problem. I used all the "evening snow" fabric that I had. I auditioned many things, but settled on this colored polk-a-dot of about the same size.
I used left over polk-a-dots on the back from exchange my Wednesday group did years ago.
This lovely little quilt was a Christmas present from my best friend, Mary, my original, Illinois Mary B :)
These hand dyed fabrics are beautiful and luminous! Hand quilting? I'm not worthy!
The back - nice fabric!
Thanks Mary - I love it~

Great little, liberated houses. The Grinch was always a favorite of mine, so I really like the name you gave your new treasure.
Your quilted gift is great; I especially like the off-center label!
How cute to use selvedge edges in the house quilt! Creative for sure.
I started to say, "I like this" and "I like that" about your Whoville quilt, but the thing is, I just love everything about it!
