Roberta's Coming Out of the Woods, Too!

It's taken me forever to get this post up, but it's just been that kind of time around here lately. Finally, I am sharing Roberta's Holiday Forest. What a beauty!
We both started in the same place but have ended up with two very different quilts. She used a vertical spacer between the columns, as did I, but was much more adventurous when it came to mixing the prints for her trees.












And the addition of that gorgeous border? Well, it's a show stopper. It just puts it in a league of its own. Drool.

She thought that she might have goofed by inserting the narrow dark green border between the trees and the floral, but with the tiny pink flange and that beautiful teal plaid binding they just all work so beautifully together.




Roberta used a non-holiday panto called Moulin Rouge to quilt it, giving her lots of lovely texture. To me, it looks like the winter winds blowing across a snowy field of trees. Love those little circles scattered throughout.
She enjoyed finishing up hand stitching the binding last week and is now the proud owner of her very own Holiday Forest

I suspect that hers is also ideal for napping under 😉; I'll have to check....M
