Christmas Bloom KIT

Create a beautiful 50" project suitable to hang on a wall, throw over the back of a chair, or lay on a table for your holiday decor.  Fabrics are all quilt shop quality fabrics and feature the Home Sweet Holidays collection by Deb Strain for Moda.  We have substituted a very light Moda Grunge with hints of green and gray for the background and one red burlap textured fabric in the the kit.  The pattern designer has 2 videos on YouTube that illustrates her method of turning the seam allowance on the large applique pieces and glueing the edge before machine stitching. Cheryl made the shop sample and used this technique and found it gave great results with the large pieces. She used the smoky transparent Monopoly thread as the top thread when appliqueing all of the red and green fabrics.  She switched to clear when appliquing the small amount of white background in the center of the flower. Cheryl traced the small circle on freezer paper and then ironed 2 additional pieces of freezer paper to the back of the traced paper.  She carefully cut the circle out to form a stiff template. She did a hand running stitch in the seam allowance of the small circle farbic and then pulled up the thread around the freezer paper for the center. Press well with a hot iron and let cool before removing the template then press again. Cheryl hand stitched these onto the quilt.  We hope this help you create a project you will be proud of!
