Finally I can show you the fun project that Sherry Gray and I have been working on all summer. We are so excited about it. With the beautiful AccuQuilt Gingerbread cookies and cookie decorations, we thought it would be fun to build a Gingerbread village – and so we did. Using the die for Reiko Kato’s small houses, I digitized a set of Gingerbread houses to use in this quilt. Here are those adorable houses.
And then we made a quilt using the houses and the cookies. The houses are set on point on a gray background and the Gingerbread Cookies are on a full size 6″ square. The connector blocks are made with the 4″ Mix & Match Qube as a 9 patch for a finished 6″ block and the border is made of the same units in the connector blocks but with the 6″ Mix & Match Qube.
The quilt is for sale in the web shop or you can purchase the houses or the gingerbread cookies separately.
Here are some closeups of the embroidery and the border.
What an adorable project!
Thank you Debbie. You know it’s been a long time since I created anything like this.
It is too cute, I love it! Great job both of you!
Thank you Lorna.
So cute, I love them all. Wonderful way to dress up my projects!
Thank you Suzanne. I can think of a thousand different ways to use these. I need to get some more “cookie” fabric. There’s a table runner in my future.
Oh Marjorie, your Gingerbread quilt and machine embroidery designs are the best ever holiday quilt. Possibilities are endless. And your quilting on your quilt makes a perfect finish. I love it.
Hi Darlene, Thank you so much. This is a really fun quilt to stitch. The designs are pretty but not too complicated. We’re working on a blue quilt and of course a tablerunner.
I saw that quilt but didn’t realize it was yours….that is adorable.
