Wrapping Up 12 Days of Kit-mas -- Christmas Quilts Galore -- and a new YouTube tutorial!


We've officially entered crazy Christmas rush time... We Corn Wagon gals were visiting the other day about how easily we become weighed down with all of the Christmas to-dos and we agree that's not how it's meant to be. Tis the season to be jolly! Right? But what's the best way to de-stress and just enjoy the season? My advice is, give yourself the valuable gift of time and space. Each year I try to give myself some grace to let go of one big task I expect of myself -- this year it's Christmas cards. I love to send and receive them, but this year, I'm taking a break. And what will I do with the time I would have invested there? Just breathe. Allow myself some peaceful time to reflect. And where do I do this best? Well, if I can't be in the great outdoors, it's best accommodated in my sewing room. Meditation just flows easier to the sound of my humming machine. The creative process is a gift in itself and carving out a few moments for some merry making -- you know, in the quilty sense -- brings a unique peace I can carry through the rest of my holiday traditions. So turn on the Christmas playlist and stitch something that brings YOU some holiday cheer!
We're wrapping up our 12 Days of Kit-mas. Tomorrow is the 12th and final day of Kit-mas at the Corn Wagon. We've had so much fun sharing simple, low-cost projects that can be made for gifts or as a fun project with the kids over Christmas break. We have a few kits left! Come in and take a look, or review our Facebook or Instagram page to see what we've been up to.
P.S. Did you spot the naughty little elf cutting paper with the fabric scissors?
All Christmas themed fabric yardage is now 30% off! You'll find prints from favorites like Liberty of London, Art Gallery Fabrics, Lori Holt and Pam Buda on sale both online and in-store while they last! Now let's discuss that adorable quilt you see there to the left...
Cymoni Whatcott worked with Liberty of London's Festive Fair collection (the very same that you see in our sale display) to make the Edna quilt by Penelope Handmade. It's pure holiday happiness with classic Christmas colors that light up with red star accents against a porcelain colored background. Grab a pattern for this cutie or a complete kit that includes the pattern as well as yardage for piecing the 64" x 77" quilt top and binding for $99.99!
These are just two of many wool applique projects we have that are catered to the Christmas season. They make unique gifts or simply provide some relaxing handwork over the holidays. The Winter Friends Banner by All Through the Night is a preprinted panel that you simply add the included wool and button embellishments to. We love the snowflakes in the letters of the Peace Love Joy Pillow by Primitive Gatherings!

Two cozy Christmas quilts from the same collection! It's always so fun to see different quilt takes using the same fabric inspo! Cozy Wonderland by Fancy That Design House has been a favorite this year and we've had fun playing with it in so many ways! (Insider secret: tomorrow's Kit-mas feature is a set of pillows using this fantastic line mixed with some woven textures so keep an eye on social media!)
Suzanne Jackman paired Cozy Wonderland with coordinating solids against a soft pink background (above and below). It creates a merry medley perfect for the new Shiny Stars quilt by Branch & Bloom. Our kit includes the pattern and yardage for piecing the 72" x 72" quilt top and binding for $149.99.

For the second quilt made from Cozy Wonderland (below), Jen Tanner followed Ramona Sorensen's Layer Cake Snowballs pattern. It's one of our free pdf downloads from our website! Using Nikko Topstitch in pewter for the background neutralized the palette some while large snowball blocks really show off the cute prints.

This precut-friendly quilt with quick and easy stitch-n-flip corners will finish at 70" x 81" for a fantastic throw-size gift! We have put together a few kits that include the pattern, a Layer Cake, background and binding for $129.99. Be sure to catch our new stitch-n-flip tutorial on our YouTube channel, where we will be piecing none other than this cute quilt!
