I'd like to start off by talking about the quilt on the cover of the book. It is called Holiday Forest and it is our daughter's favorite.
I love it too but she was really convinced this one would be the cover quilt and she was right! I think the aqua and green color palette looks lovely on the cover, with all the presents in front and the big, fluffy rug on the floor. (For those who are interested, the fabric came from a collection called Ready Set Snow by Me and My Sister Design for Moda, and there are lots of Robert Kaufman blenders in it as well, including some by Patrick Lose.) This quilt doesn't have to be made in strictly Christmas prints - choose a color palette you love and go for it!
Holiday Forest features three different sizes of trees. The biggest is over 22" in height, which means this quilt is sew-able in a weekend. I don't know if you can tell but the snowflakes are appliqued with metallic thread for a little bit of sparkle. Of course you could use a Cutwork tool for snowflakes if you have one, or you could even cut them out by hand. There are 4 snowflake shapes included in the book.
They are also used in this pillow...
And in these coasters...
You could decorate the trees on the quilt with buttons or trim and keep it out the entire winter! To enter to win for this first day of the blog tour, just leave a comment on this post telling me what whether you would most like to make the quilt, pillow, or coasters and what colors you might make it in. That's it! One entry per person and the deadline will be this Friday, the 12th, at midnight.

The pillow and the quilt would be beautiful together and fun to coordinate prints with. :) Love these ideas!
ReplyDeleteI love this quilt too! And would make it in blue and silver .
ReplyDeleteI am excited for the Blog Hop and the release of your book! I would LOVE to make the quilt but reality right now is that I will be able to make and complete the coasters! I would make the quilt in traditional Christmas Colors and the coasters in blues and whites.
ReplyDeleteSuzanne dot Jourdan at gmail dot com
I'd make the quilt - in browns and greens
ReplyDeleteAll 3 projects are darling but I think I'd make the pillow and use blues and white to use as a winter pillow.
ReplyDeleteI would love to make the tree and the coasters would make great Christmas presents for quilting friends xx
ReplyDeleteI just love pillows, so yes please, and i would love in red and aqua
ReplyDeleteWell we have always agreed that your daughter and I loved the trees...congrats on this book tour and how exciting Amanda to be part of something that really ties us all together....HOLIDAYS....I am ready for tomorrow....
ReplyDeleteI'd make the pillow and it would be in peacock and cream.
ReplyDeleteI am a traditionalist, so I am thinking of making the quilt in trad Christmas colors: deep red, deep green, and gold.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to make the quilt in blue and white, and maybe another in green and brown. This looks like a really fun book. Love your cover quilt!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the book. I'd make the quilt. I like your colors, but would probably need to go more traditional due to my super traditional hubby. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI saw the cover of the book and the quilt last week. I immediately thought that I needed to make it in the same colors you chose; my favorites. But, I also thought it would be cute made up in fall colors...greens, oranges, golds, with a leaf replacing the snowflake. I'm very excited to see what the next 10 days will bring. Wishing you much success!
ReplyDeleteI would make the quilt. Adorable!
ReplyDeleteI'd make the pillow in traditional Christmas colors of red, green & white. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteCoasters for sure! These would make great gifts for lots of family, friends, and coworkers. I'd make them in blues, silver-grays, and white for me. For the gifts I'd have fun and play around with different color combinations. -- soparkaveataoldotcom
ReplyDeleteI love the trees in the quilt. That's what I would make.
ReplyDeleteI have been so looking forward to this blog hop...and I love the tree quilt...I would love to make it in blue and white...I have a piece of Jason Yenter snowflake fabric left over from last Christmas and it would be so pretty made up into this quilt...thank you for being so generous.
ReplyDeleteI will love to do the quilt in aqua ans reen and pink. Sort of retro colors!
ReplyDeleteI'd make the quilt first, but love all the projects. I like the green and aqua and might use those colors plus a bit of red.
ReplyDeleteThe book looks great! Thanks for the chance. I always lean toward quilts, so that is what I would make.
ReplyDeleteI really like the snowflakes and they would look awesome in lime green like your example
ReplyDeleteThe quilt and pillow would be a fun project but then
Everything in the book would be fun to make
I would make the quilt - adore the trees! In Navy, greens and white.
ReplyDeleteI like the quilt and the pillow; would probably make the quilt
ReplyDeleteI would make the quilt (first!) in red, green and white - I love the traditional colours!
ReplyDeleteI'd start with a pillow (or several) for sure. The easiest way to change up decor for holidays. I have a bundle of Blitzen I still need to use up!
ReplyDeleteFirst let me say your book is wonderful!!! I am planning on making a table runner out of the quilt pattern in shades of green, white with a little bit of red and gold. Congratulations on thebook and thanks for the giveaway offer too
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt! What a nice quilt for the cover. I like the idea of Christmas coasters. That looks like a fast and fun project.
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt... it would be lovely in warm flannels and used for a winter quilt, not just for Christmas. Thanks for the opportunity to win this great book!
ReplyDeleteAmanda I would make some pillows and coasters. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI would probably make all three! Thanks. kcannon@anwsu.org
ReplyDeleteFirst item I'd make would be pillows using pastel colors of turquoise and pink - for a Florida Beachy Christmas! Would absolutely love to win your new book!
ReplyDeleteI would love to be making this quilt with the snow falling all around my wonderful cozy cottage. I would be using red and white, with a touch of bright green so it would fit right into my red and white Christmas theme. Thanks for this wonderful opportunity. Judy C in NC
ReplyDeleteI love both the quilt and pillow, but would probably make the pillow first. One of our granddaughters prefers the non-traditional Christmas colors, so they would make beautiful presents for her. Thank you so much for sharing your God given gifts with the quilting world.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to make the quilt and a pillow. I would use the aqua, green and white and add a little red.
ReplyDeleteI'd make the quilt using aqua, green and a few splashes of pink, my favorite colors for Christmas, thanks.
ReplyDeleteI am a primitive or Civil War quilter but I really like the larger quilt and I would make that except that I probably would use more tradional fabrics which would blend with the rest of the house.
ReplyDeleteI love the pillow the colors you have chosen would suit the brown leather couch we have. The quilt would also have to be made.Love the Ready Set Snow line you used.
ReplyDeleteI would make a pillow in green and red, Love the coasters also
ReplyDeleteI would like to mnake the pillow , I love it , thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI would make the coasters. I am a last minute project person and I can imagine making the pillow and the quilt, but not finishing in time for THIS year. Then I would have something to work on over the summer.
ReplyDeleteCongrats again on your book! I would love to make the pillow in wintery colors, not necessarily Christmas...that way I could leave it out longer and enjoy it more! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI am a traditional quilter..... mostly Civil War color way, but this book has spiked my interest in modern design! I would choose to make the quilt....not using stash. Buying all new and interesting fabrics! Thanks Lee
ReplyDeleteOh my! I would love to make all of them and I love the aqua and green! Going to get the book right now!
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt and the pillow and think I would make both to go on my couch. I have seen a lot of blue and white christmas quilts and think that would be a beautiful combination to do, to match my couch.
ReplyDeleteDebbie
I would make the quilt, in the fabric shown, as it is stunning!!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to make sets of the coasters as Christmas gifts. I'd make them in blues and whites for my sister, traditional christmas colors for my step-mother, and red and lime green for a dear friend who loves that color green.
ReplyDeleteI would probably make the pillow and the couch in Christmas prints to decorate my house for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteI´d to make the quilt and love the fabrics you use or aqua and red.
ReplyDeleteHi, All 3 are beautiful. I would make the pillow, maybe for me and then for gifts this Christmas too!
ReplyDeleteThe pillow is my favorite, I would make it with green, pink and sage. tkmattson@hotmail.com
ReplyDeleteI would have to make the quilt with the traditional red and green Christmas prints mixed with some blue. Thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteI've made a couple of Christmas quilts and they get so little use that I think making the snowflake pillows would be a better use of my holiday sewing time, and it can be out longer for winter too.
ReplyDeleteI would so make that quilt :) I love the aquas and greens and I have some left-over Blitzen fabrics. Can't wait to see all the previews.
ReplyDeleteLove the wall hanging of the trees. I would usually use traditional colors but the aqua and green makes it seem like winter is giving way to a glimpse of spring. Very pretty. I would make the pillow though and use maroons and gold to go with my couch.
ReplyDeleteI would make the pillow. One, I know I could complete in time for Christmas. Two, one never has enough pillows! Three, make nice gifts. Maybe not give away!! :) I tend to be traditional in color at Christmastime.
ReplyDeleteTotally in love with that pillow! blessings, marlene
ReplyDeleteI love them all. And my colors will definitely be aqua and green as those are the colors I use to decorate for Christmas with. I really love the quilt.
ReplyDeleteI would make the quilt in more traditional Christmas colors: burgundy and forest green. However, the colors in your quilt are beautiful together.
ReplyDeletek.castanette@hotmail.com
I could use some seasonal pillows for my new green sofa, and both this pattern and fabric are perfect.
ReplyDeleteSince I don't have any Christmas coasters I would start with coasters first using Christmas Fabrics. I would then make the pillow and the quilt. I love the colors you used for the quilt so would probably use similar colors.
ReplyDeleteI would make the quilt and would use red, aqua and green. The pillow looks great too.
ReplyDeleteI am all in for the quilt! I am thinking a dark burgundy and a grayed lime green. I love Christmas in July!
ReplyDeletelove the quilt would make it using some pinks along with the blues and greens

ReplyDeleteI love them all, but my colors will definitely be red, green, and white. I will be making a slew of the coasters for gifts.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to making this quilt. I will definitely add the metallic thread on the snowflakes.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt in the colors you chose, but would probably start with the coasters in traditional colors. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeletebolson1172@yahoo.com
I like the pillow and I like the colors you have a photo of. Thanks for the fun. I need to get started with my Christmas sewing.
ReplyDeleteI am just now struggling with the idea of making my first quilt- my son has chosen to make me a grandmother. But I would have to say coasters. You seem very knowledgable- do you know where Icould find a pattern for a unisex baby romper- you know the fat bottom kind with elastic at the leg holes? Thank you for all this hard work sharing.
ReplyDeleteFirst quilt, then the pillow and leftovers would used to make coasters. I like the darker reds and greens, But the light color is really cool too
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing group of projects! I love the quilt and the little stuffed trees! I would definitely start with those! Looking forward to seeing the book up close and personal :-)
ReplyDeleteI would probably make the quilt in more traditional winter colors. I'd also make the pillow, and adapt the pattern to make a table runner. Thanks for the fun giveaway!
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt! I would make it in the forest green/burgundy and cream colors. :) Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI think I'd like to go for the quilt in aqua and red to hang on the wall along the stairs.
ReplyDeleteI would start with the pillow, in cream and navy like snow flakes in a night sky. I like the quilt too, may cut it down to 1/4 and make a wall hanging.
ReplyDeleteI would start with the coasters, to get in the mood on a hot 95+ degree day. I would like them in the same colors as the quilt to match my decor. I might even make them into mug rugs!
ReplyDeleteI would make the quilt and it would be beautiful in modern greens and silver.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt and love the blue and green. I would change it up by switching white for the cream though.
ReplyDeleteNot sure what colors I would use, as I haven't seen what is available at this time. I like what you have done, but may find a different plan as the new collections arrive in my LQS this season.
ReplyDeleteThink that I would start off with the coasters and definitely in a christmas print
ReplyDeleteI would love to make the quilt in dark green and sky blue and browns!
ReplyDeleteI really love Christmas crafting and sewing! That is a super cute snowflake and I think I would definitely make the pillow, but in the colors of the quilt. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI think I would make the pillow with sparkly blue and white fabrics. I'm looking forward to this hop to see the other projects in the book.
ReplyDeleteI would make that quilt in super bright -- neon? -- pinks and limes. Love it!
ReplyDeleteMy holiday colors are pink, turquoise, and bright green, and I would love to whip up some of those adorable coasters!
ReplyDeleteI would like to make the quilt or pillow in ice blues and whites.
ReplyDeleteThe pillow in Holiday Forest. Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is gorgeous and I would love to make one with similar colors. I enjoy non-traditional Christmas colors for the holidays. Thanks for a chance to win a copy of your book.

ReplyDeleteI would definitely make the pillow. Not sure that I would have time this year to make a quilt, but a possibility for next year.
ReplyDeleteThese designs are adorable! And I love the color choices! I am such a lover of red, that foe me a quilt with BIG red trees would be perfect! Thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteOooh, the book looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI would love to make this quilt, and I would make it in red and green. But they wouldn't be bright Christmassy reds and greens. They'd be more like reproduction burgandies and maybe forest greens or dark olives with a dark cream background print.
I think the coasters are such a great gift idea - I'd make them in blue and silver if I made them to keep myself. More traditional colors for a gift - white or silver snowflakes with a red or green background fabric.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!

The quilt and pillow are beautiful and I would make them in traditional colors.

ReplyDeleteI'd make the quilt in teal and burgundy with gold highlights.
ReplyDeleteYou know I would have to make your quilt and I would have to use a variety of fabric designs but they would include some of your Tinsel, some embroidery blocks done in silvery blue and some very nice dark midnight blue to touch it all up. Thanks Amanda, you're fantastic as usual. I have to win the book, hubby said no book purchases this year and I'm trying to be good. :)
ReplyDeleteAmanda, I love the quilt and in the same colors you used! But I guess I would use red and white in mine.
ReplyDeleteI would make the quilt and pillow in powder blue and a darker one, along with some white. These are my daughter's colours...I learn towards more traditional.
ReplyDeleteQuiltinGram
I adore the tree quilt - would love to make one. I love your colours and they would totally suit the hot Australian Christmas - no sign of snowflakes here though! But I wouldn't leave them out - a reminder of family and friends celebrating in the North!
ReplyDeleteI would make a quilt and love love the colors of turquoise and green.
ReplyDeleteShawn
I'd like to make the forest quilt in something non-traditional, like purple!
ReplyDeleteI Like th coasters and I like aqua & Red
ReplyDeleteHELLO, LOVE YOUR PROJECTS!
ReplyDeleteI'LL DO SOME COASTERS IN CHRISTMAS REDS+GREENS FOR CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR!
msstitcher1948@yahoo.com
I really love the quilt a lot but, at this point in time, I would choose the coasters. I'm thinking of making gifts for the holidays of coasters and food gifts with a few other things. I know those would be made and not sit on my shelf. I think the colors I'd use would be teal, red, green and some metallic golds/silvers.
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is darling so that would be my choice to make. The blue/green colorway would be the colors.
ReplyDeleteI have some great Christmas fabric I would use for that
ReplyDeleteI so want to make this quilt because you probably won't give me the one in the photo! Right?
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely quilt. I would love to make it in dark greens and burgundies. It looks like a great book!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Amanda!! I love the Holiday Forest quilt and the snowflake pillow too...which one shall I make first? I'd say it is a must have book for anybody's quilting library. Keeping my fingers crossed...thanks for the chance!! Happy stitching, Pauline
ReplyDeleteI would love to make the pillow the most because I could leave it out even after Christmas. I would use silvers, teal and gray for the colors so it would fit perfectly in my living room.
ReplyDeleteSandy A

wigglypup2(at)yahoo(dot)com
I'd start by making the pillow, and I love the fabrics you used, so would choose them, if I knew what fabric line it is!
ReplyDeleteI'd make the tree quilt! I'd do them all as Christmas trees and put one color of beads, sequins, crystals on each tree. I'd end up with a rainbow forest. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations in a beautiful book! I'd love to start with your tree quilt, as I also love the pillow and coasters, hehe. I have more of a traditional background but I'm loving the "modern" twist. The colors you used are wonderful and I'd try and find similiar, if not the same fabric.
ReplyDeleteThank you and Stash Books for a super giveaway and the chance to win.
usairdoll(at)gmail(dot)com

ReplyDeleteI like the pillow!!
ReplyDeleteI would make that tree quilt. I love it

ReplyDeleteWonderful book Amanda ! I would make a lap quilt in traditional Christmas colors for me and nontraditional colors for my granddaughters. Thanks for a chance to win !
ReplyDeleteI would love to make the cover quilt of trees, and I love it in the aqua and green - so different from my usual reproduction color scheme! Of course that means one of my kids might steal it for their house...better make a few "modern" Christmas quilts!
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt and would make it in similar colors - turquoise & limey green. :) This book looks fabulous! Thanks for a chance to win! :)
ReplyDeletelove the quilt most I think, although they are all just adorable! I think I would love to make it in red, white, and aqua!

ReplyDeleteI really like the pillow nk I would make tht one in navy blue and white. Looks like a lovely book.
ReplyDeleteI would make the pillow. Maybe a few of them as gifts.
ReplyDeleteI would like to make the quilt and pillow to match. I think I would use turquoise and green with a pale lavender as a background with the trees.
ReplyDeleteOh I really love this quilt. i am working on a snowman quilt, so I would like to make the snowflake pillow in blues and greens to go with it.
ReplyDeleteI love the coasters, they are so cute and useful. I can easily whip up a bunch of these for friends and family. I love the red/green combo, but I'm sure some of my friends would also love blue/white.
ReplyDeleteI need coasters so badly and this would give me an excuse to make them! Pink, turquoise and green would be my color way.
ReplyDeleteI would make the Tree quilt! I would use soft shades of green for the trees.
ReplyDeleteI would make the quilt, probably to match our drawing room, as it is stunningand looks a 'quick' makeas ialways underestimate how much time I have til Christmas.

ReplyDeleteI love all three but I would start with the coasters. A couple sets for me to keep and a few sets to give as gifts!
ReplyDeleteI love bloghops and this one looks like lots of fun.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely make the coasters in purple, green and silver. I would make the snowflake in silver and the background in greens and purples.
I kind of like the color palette you've chosen. It's quite nice. Or perhaps change up the green to include various shades of evergreen to reflect the trees here in the northwest.
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to have pillows on my couch this year with those exact colors - it's gorgeous! I love Christmas in July. congrats on your book Amanda!
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to make the quilt and I'd do it in similar colors, my daughters would just have to draw straws for it!
ReplyDeleteCONGRATS on the new book, looks wonderful - & thanks for the chance to win!
I would really love to try the quilt. I'm still a (very much) newbie, but with the larger pieces I don't think I'd too much trouble. And it is soooo very pretty!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!!
I think I would make a bunch of the coasters to give in sets as teacher gifts!
ReplyDeleteI love love love snowflakes so I would probably be drawn to the pillow first that I'd loved to make in a nice cool blue background with lovely white flakes to keep it cool and cold!
ReplyDeleteFun! I would start with the quilt in bright colors, e.g. apple green, aqua, turquoise, pinks, and raspberry reds with white. And since the pillow and coasters coordinate...
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!
I'd love to make those coasters in a blue and silver colorway :) Thanks!

ReplyDeleteI would def ma ke the quilt with a variety of green and white patterns!

ReplyDeleteYour quilt is gorgeous, Amanda! I love the simplicity of it!
ReplyDeleteI'd like to make a new Christmas pillow. I like the soft reds, gray and aqua for colors

ReplyDeleteThank you for putting my name in the hat for this special drawing.
I would love to make the quilt. I'd love to add some aquas.
ReplyDeleteWould make both the quilt and the matching pillow out of cobalt blues and silvera
