Ahhh, I’m in love with this art quilt. I own a book called Birds and Words with this very image in it; on my nightstand. It’s one of three art quilts Kit Lang made as part of a Charley Harper Quilt Along. Click HERE to see Kit’s other art quilts.

I recently treated myself to “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” by Jennifer Chiaverini for the upcoming holiday season. As a fan of the Elm Creek Quilts series, I couldn’t resist diving into this heartwarming tale of Christmas traditions and family legacies.
The anticipation of exploring the holiday festivities at Elm Creek Manor is palpable, especially with Sylvia Bergstrom Compson, the Master Quilter, at the helm. Sarah McClure’s eagerness to bring Christmas cheer to the manor adds an extra layer of excitement as she uncovers a curious Christmas quilt with a rich history spanning generations.
As I eagerly await immersing myself in this delightful narrative, I’m already captivated by the promise of cherished memories, family bonds, and the timeless traditions that have endured through the years. With each page promising glimpses into the past and the present, I’m bracing myself for a heartwarming journey filled with love, hope, and the spirit of giving.
Being a part of the Elm Creek Quilts series has been a joyous experience, and I can’t wait to unwrap the magic of “The Christmas Quilt / The New Year’s Quilt” this holiday season. So, no spoilers, please—let the enchanting tale unfold as I cozy up with this beloved series once again.
Please make sure not to leave me any spoilers as I haven’t read it yet.
Hey, thanks for the mention! Glad you like them.
Cheers,

Thanks for posting this awesome Charlie Harper inspired quilt. Please do me a favor and change the spelling of “Charley” to Charlie.
Hello dls,
I think you are thinking about fictional character Charlie Harper of Two and 1/2 Men.

The artist Charley Harper is definitely spelled with “ey”.
Warmly,
Scarlett
