Welcome to Day 1 of the 2016 Christmas Quilt-along! Da datta da!! (imagine a trumpet fanfare at this point!)
This year we'll be making a 28" x 34" wall hanging. Every other day between now and December 23rd, I'll be unveiling a new component or embellishment for our quilts. We'll start off with traditional piecing, move into some paper piecing, and wrap up with simple embroidery.
This is the color palette that I chose for my quilt—I'm trying for a happy, Christmas candy kind of look—but feel free to choose whatever color palette appeals to you. Hint: you'll probably want to have at least a couple of green prints to work with.
