Christmas Tree Quilt coming up soon

[MARGARET K.]

I have Alex Anderson Classics Holiday Lights Pattern. Is it the same as the upcoming project pattern? Alex referred to paper piecing in the e-mail this week. Is that addressed in new pattern (if it is a new pattern). Other wise how do I get a paper piece pattern? Suggestions please.
If it is totally new pattern I will probably but it . Otherwise I want to use the one I have.

I haven't got a clue..... not unusual. But we have some members here who seem to know just about anything. I bet you get your answer as soon as one of them sees this new thread (Yohoooooo, Margo......).

I just searched on the "Holiday Lights" pattern and it definitely looks the same to me. But that's all I know. If I were you, I'd probably wait to see how her lessons go (unless an insider can give more info). Maybe she'll be giving us the paper-piecing pattern in the class if it isn't in the pattern.

YUP! It is the same pattern - The pattern doesn't come with paper piecing instructions but I will teach how to adapt to that...as well as traditionally pieced. Start collecting your stash........I once had a person make it pink and black - super awesome!

[Hannelore N.]

I knew it! Answers come superfast here in the forum! Thanks, Alex!

Lorchen, you say you don't have a clue - but your ARE a clue. So many mysteries here on TQS,...hmmm....... "I think Lorchen did it!", or " Lorchen would know!"....... Usually answers it! :lol: Like if I received a whole bunch of sweet hearts from people wishing me encouragement and good wishes, and in there amongst them was a set of boxers, there would be a clue: I'd automatically think. "That's Lorchen!"

Just saying.

[Hannelore N.]

Hehehehe.......... Hearts are lovely, but you also need something to keep you occupied! Couldn't find any boxers with hearts on, and not enough time to make any.

[Hannelore N.]

You look wonderful in your new pic. Love the hat. I wish Canadians wore hats like the Brits!
I have a very practical side.

I've already thought of putting the boxers into some kind of hat, but.....I think Rosemary needs a swatch of them on her mug rug. Just saying.

Love the new photo Lorchen you look great

[MARGARET K.]

Thanks so much. I can't wait to start this one.

'Dewees1', I'm sorry that your thread here got high-jacked because I changed my profile picture.

I'm really looking forward to find out a lot more about that Christmas pattern. I have the feeling that I already have enough suitable fabrics in my stash. My only problem will be finding the time for another project.

[Teresa B.]

I've ordered the kit. I probably could have done it from my stash but.... Hopefully I will be able to keep up and get it done in time for Christmas. I have 2 other Christmas quilts I need to get done for presents this year. Just may have to have the kids make their own lunch and dinner this weekend to get some quilting done.

I just got my pattern in the mail today. I am using my stash.

[Teresa B.]

My kit and pattern arrived yesterday. Pulled the pattern out to look at today at work but didn't pull all the fabric out yet. Loved the colors in it when I glanced at them. Wanted to wait until I start sewing before pulling them all out so I don't loose anything. I am just wondering what size quilt the kit will make.

[Teresa B.]

Just went to Alex's website and see that the kit makes the wall/lap quilt (48" X 52"). That should be doable by Christmas.
