Construct an art quilt with painting and applique techniques from quilt artist Linda Schmidt. For her Parisian nine-patch miniature quilt, she shows how to create a pattern from a photograph.
Give new life to a tired quilt that's stored away in a linen closet, attic or trunk by making it into Christmas stockings for your family. These stockings will certainly become heirlooms that will be treasured for many holidays to come.
Some old quilts are too fragile or tattered to use as bedding, but they're too precious to throw away. Repurpose one into a charming, cottage-style Christmas tree skirt by using the largest intact portion of the quilt.
Joyce Laporte lives with her daughter, Kristin, and son-in-law, Fred. Her mother-in-law suite contains everything she needs except one thing: a closet. She has outgrown her space, and her clothes are stored in the basement.
Instead of a traditional evergreen Christmas wreath, dress up your front door with a holiday swag made from fresh greenery, fabric branches and glittering pinecones.
Handmade sleeves or holders for candy canes have been around for generations. This sweet throwback holiday craft is quick, easy and fun for kids of all ages to make using just felt and glue.
