I'm very excited to report that I've finished piecing my Christmas Gypsy Wife top! My target was to accomplish this by the end of October, so I can get the quilt finished by the holidays. I love the way it turned out! I think the key to success for this pattern is to use a huge variety of fabrics --there are more than 90 different retro and 30s Christmas fabrics in my version.
Onward to trimming, squaring, layering,
quilting and binding ...

Oh, WOW ! Such a beauty ! Heartful congratulations, Jeanne :D It's such a wonderful feeling, when we reach our goal & target date...
I LOVE your idea of using Xmas colors, and 30's repro fabrics (which, by the way, we can't find here in Belgium - thank you online shopping ! :D
In stitches,

Looking fabulous! That is going to make a wonderful Christmas quilt.
I think that's the first Christmas version I've seen. I just love that pattern in any version. Congrats on the flimsy finish.
