I love everything by Lisa Bongean – and her newest book does NOT disappoint!  Honestly, I think it is the best book she has written in years – and that is saying something!

This book has just the right mix of small projects and large quilts – but they ALL will be treasured by your family for years!  When I first started looking at images, I didn’t think it had a Christmas feel.  Many of the projects don’t scream “holiday” so they can be used any time.

Christmas Rose is available in two sizes – a one block mini or a four block version.  Wool quilts are available for both (#PRI-1002 and #PRI-1003)

The detail in the smaller projects added the awe factor to an already spectacular book!  The embroidered berries and pines add that detail that we have grown to love.

These simple ornaments remind me of the silhouettes that were so popular in cross stitching years ago….

And who could make just one of this sweet little lamb???

These embellished “bulb ornaments” would be a great favor for a holiday get together.  Let your guests pick their favorite!

These stacked ornaments are a perfect family project.  Now that you know you HAVE to have the book, the only question is – what are you going to make first???
