A Gingerbread House Christmas Quilt (Fat Quarter Pile Up)

Hello, my quilty friends!

My gingerbread house quilt is back from Kaitlyn and I love how it turned out! 🥰 The pattern is Fat Quarter Pile Up by Kaitlyn at Knot + Thread, and it's one of my go-to patterns.

I have to admit this was my least favorite fabric pull of my Christmas bundles, but it just might be my favorite quilt of them all!

Give that fabric pull a chance

Fabric looks different in a quilt. A stack of fat quarters can look a little blah sitting on the shelf, and then you cut it up and sew it together and you love it. If you're on the fence about a bundle, sew it up anyway!

Find your star print. My favorite print in this one is the gingerbread houses. One print you love can carry the whole quilt.

Back it with something cozy. I backed this one with a red minky, so it's extra snuggly.

Make your own

Fat Quarter Pile Up just takes 12 fat quarters, and you can find the pattern from Kaitlyn at Knot + Thread. See all four of my Christmas Fat Quarter Pile Up quilts here.
