Quilting Santa Today

I went over to the Quilt Haus and cut the borders for the reflections quilt, the backing for Machine and a backing for Reflections.  I also trimmed QR Codes so I need to just put the binding on that one.

Then I came home and contemplated the quilting on the Leaf Quilt.  I need to contemplate a bit more since I want to do some custom quilting on that one.

So I pulled Santa.  Mostly because I had a piece of batting I uncovered in the infamous Corner.  I guess I had sized the batting for a particular quilt sandwich, which has long since been separated from its innards.  And since it was pretty close to the Santa top lap  size, it got commandeered.

I did this quilt for a challenge with the CyberGuild I belonged to a number of years ago.  It was 2007, and I have them listed under the Christmas Challenge, but I can't remember what the parameters were outside of Christmas.



I can think of several ways to custom quilt the areas of Santa, but you know, I think I will just do a simple straight line and circle idea I saw on one of the blogs recently. 

It will look like snow is falling and icicles are forming. And the world will be right.....
