Well, another new project. Over Christmas I wished I had Christmas theme quilt I could hang up during the holidays. I usually just hang up a redwork embroidery that is not really Christmas-y but looks nice with my holiday decorations. I do have one Christmas quilt, but have several places I like to change out the quilts for season in my house. And lo and behold, Gail Pan came out with her 2024 block of the month and it is Once Upon a Christmas, and was exactly what I was looking for. This one is only 6 months and will give time to complete the project for Christmas. Each block contains applique and embroidery and machine piecing - Love it!
Here is my first block:
I have the stitchery completed for the second block, just need to get started on the background blocks. I am using touches of green and gold along with the red, simply cause I can :) Gail's quilt is all in red and very scrappy. I do like scrappy quilts!!!

How nice that you found a BOM that suited your desires. I can't believe how much detail is in the one block you made! It looks like a series of small blocks, each requiring a specific technique. No doubt you've embraced working on this project - just what you want to work on. It will be a great finish to enjoy in December!
