The Kate Spain "Joy" plus quilt is finished, washed, photographed, and up in the shop! This is just a straight forward plus design, with the addition of lots of negative space. I like that the Christmas fabrics are then not so overwhelming, and the Kona Ash softens it up nicely I think. I added a little strip of pieced binding, just for fun! This quilt finishes at 43" x 56".
I will be linking up with Finish it up Friday @ Crazy Mom Quilts

Very nice! Cute scrappy piece in the binding. I love doing that!
Very sweet! Your design makes it not so overwhelmingly Christmassy!
I really like the tight quilting lines. Loving the grey sashing too :). The whole thing is great!
The ash plusses are a nice contrast!
Great finish Heather! The hint of scrappy colour is fantastic!
This is such a great Christmas quilt. Love the fabric!
Looks great, Heather!
I am sooooooooooo in love with this quilt! I love the the Joy fabric and you did an amazing job!
I love this Christmas quilt! Love the gray and the scrappy and how restful it is. :)
It looks great! How do you make your quilting lines so even? Do you use a walking foot and quilting bar?
Another great finish! The grey is a wonderful contrast to the Christmas fabric!
oh it's very nice indeed!

notting hill is in if you're looking for a next project ;)
So cute, Heather!
I love the dense straight line quilting!
Looks great! I doubted your solid choice, but you are smarter than me. ;)
Cute quilt. I love the bulb fabric.
Love the Christmas quilt. I bought a little of those fabrics too - just couldn't resist. Love the aprons in your header also. Do you have pattern information for those?
I love the quilt - I have vowed that I will no longer buy Christmas fabric, as it puts me under too much pressure to finish a project. I may have to reconsider this... :) It's lovely!
Your quilt is gorgeous!! I love the fabric you chose and the quilting is wonderful!!
Lovely quilt. I love the quilting.
Beautiful - love the bit of scrappy binding and the dense quilting is fabulous!
I love your quilt! Fabulous!!
Gorgeous! Love the quilting ; )
The fabric choice in these are perfect!! I'm in love with that little Xmas light pattern.
It's beautiful. I keep thinking I should make myself a holiday quilt, but I haven't yet moved forward with that project. The constant problem of putting things for myself on the back burner!
I love it with the grey -- beautiful quilt.
I love the bit of scrappy binding.
It is awesome Heather!
I love it! Wonderful work. I just started my own (non Christmas) plus quilt, and yours makes me want to make another Christmas version. I just love this design. And Kate Spain is my favorite fabric designer like ever.
i need to make a christmas quilt or three! love this one tons! very good work!
This is so great, Heather! I love the busy prints paired with a neutral ground. Really gives it a modern look! Now I want a Christmas quilt!
Love this! What a fun idea to add the piece of binding!
Everything about this quilt is so fresh and fun! I love the soothing gray background and the layout. And the patch of scrappy binding is so fun! Great job!!
what a great idea. A non christmassy pattern with christmas fabric - wonderful. Can imagine that as a pillow for me. Thanks for sharing.
