Keepsake Christmas Quilting and Pinners Con

Watching Hallmark Christmas movies while Christmas sewing in July is one of the best things!
One goal is to make a Keepsake Mini Quilt for a drawing to give away in my best friend's class.
The class will be presented at Pinners Utah this November.  I went with her last year and it was great fun with lots of classes to choose from and all kinds of vendors and even free stuff!  It's a great Girls weekend! 
Here's a link if you want to find out more and get the discount code.
This little framed quilt has a fussy cut 6 1/2" center.

Needs another red border.
This one has a patchwork center with Christmas village scenic borders.
The patchwork squares are 2" (1 1/2" finished) with 3 1/4" fussy cut borders.  It finishes a little over 12" square.

 It was fun pulling out the Christmas fabrics and getting in the Christmas spirit!
