'Twas the Night by LeeAnne Timpano, quilted by Barbara Futoma

This delightful quilt by LeeAnne Timpano features the opening to Clement C. Moore's Christmas poem, "Twas the night before Christmas", done in the shape of a whimsical Christmas tree. Likely these words conjure images of Santa Claus as they bring a smile to your face.

The quilting was done by Barbara Futoma in an overall snowflake design that fits the holiday theme.  This fun quilt was entered in the Medium/Large Applique category at the 2018 Quilt Arizona show. The fusible applique design, by Emily Cier at Carolina Patchworks, is also available as a printed fabric panel at Spoonflower.
