Well, here is my version of "A Christmas Wish", finished and ready to hang in my home for Christmas.
Download A Christmas Wish BOM finishing instructions if you would like to make the quilt like mine. I have used scraps for all of it (but I still have more!!!)
here is an example of the quilting, I have used perle 8 thread in ecru. I have quilted the last border in the same way as the smaller block borders.
I would love to see photos of finished quilts, sooooo when you are ready, send them in!!!
here is Janna's
and visit here to see Tudy's.
Back soon with more!!!
Cheers
Gail

Thank you so much for making this BOM for us :o) Yours turned out sooo beautiful!!! I have a lot of Christmas fabric scraps too, and I look forward to get them in this one :o) I just started the BOM, but I’m working on the third now, so I guess I’ll be finished before Christmas ;o)
Have a great day, and Happy sewing :o)
PS! Now I’ve seen photos of yours and Leanne’s projects for you classes in Trondheim, and they are gorgeous! My favorite? “Laila’s garden” of course :oD
Terrific finish!
Thank you very much for this beautiful BOM. I love the way you quilted yours!
Ils sont tous les deux ravissants !!!
Love it!!!! I started sewing my little blocks together this afternoon and just need to press them before I do the final assembly! Will email a photo when I am done with it all. 🙂
Gorgeous! Fabulous! Outstanding! Tks so very much 🙂
Fantastic! Personnally I prefer the first one.
Thank you so much to share those beautiful designs with us!!

Oh, I’m so glad I waited to put my blocks together until I saw yours! I absolutely love it! My stitcheries are all finished…so this will be my project for today! Thanks so much!
My quilts are not going to be as big as yours so I don´t really know yet how to finish but Im thinking about putting some yellow to it. Wait and see perhaps it´s ready so I can show you in Trondheim
Love both yours and Janna’s finished quilt, each lovely in their own way, but thanks for sharing your finishing instructions cause I believe I will finish mine like yours.
Again, thanks for sharing your talent with your readers, I have loved doing the embroidery on the squares.
What an incredible piece of work… Wow…
It looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much again Gail! Also, I love your finished quilt and the finishing directions. I had already cut the 2 1/2″ blocks but need to finish “Magic” and then I am ready to go. It has been so much and looking forward to getting your book. It’s going to be a birthday gift!
Gorgeous Gail! I’ve still got my magic block to stitch but now I can’t wait to have it completed!

Hi Gail,
A belated thank you. I have really enjoyed the making of these beautiful “A Christmas Wish” BOM’s and am really glad that I have kept up with each design.
Thank you for your very creative talent and your generosity in sharing these with so many of us stitchers online. I am so looking forward to putting my blocks together and hopefully completing the quilt before Christmas.
Once again a huge thanks.

All the blocks were so simple and sweet, Gail – I love your finished quilt, but I chose to finish mine a bit differently. Thank you SO much for sharing this beautiful BOM!
Love your quilt. I have the patterns saved. Probably won’t be done until Christmas, I still need to finish my jewelery rolls for a friend to give as gifts for Christmas. I hope to post a tutorial soon.
It’s a beautiful quilt! Love the combination of embroidery and piecing.
