Welcome back for Day 9 of the Deck the Halls QAL!
For our final day we're going to be adding a ribbon border to our medallion quilts using the split quarter square triangles blocks that we made on Day 6. I love how this surprisingly easy border frames and finishes the quilt—definitely worth the trimming we did last week!

I've loved making a medallion quilt for the QAL this year! It was so much fun to see the quilt unfold with the addition of each border. All that's left now is to decide whether to hang my Deck the Halls quilt on my wall:
or to display it on my kitchen table:
Hmmm....
And that's a wrap for the 2018 Deck the Halls Quilt Along! It's been an absolute pleasure sharing this project with you and connecting with you via email and social media. I'd love to see pictures of your quilts when they're finished, so please tag me @jendalyquilts when you post your quilts or even send a photo to me at jendalyquilts@gmail.com.
If you weren't able to quilt along with us this year, but you'd like to make your own Deck the Halls quilt, the QAL posts will be available on my blog through the month of January. The complete (and compressed) pattern for Deck the Halls will also be available in my Etsy shop in the new year.
Thank you all so much for following and quilting along! I wish you all Happy Holidays, a Happy New Year, and Happy Quilting!!
Cheers! jen
