One of my best friends, Missy P., came over today to help me quilt her little panel quilts that she will be gifting for Christmas gifts... And she spared no expense when she picked out the backing fabrics....Yummy, fluffy, velvety soft minkee fabrics.... I might just have to make myself a snuggle quilt just so I can put this on the back side. It’s seriously to die for. She and her mom, Mrs. Juanita got these put together for her grandkids and great nephews....
I absolutely am loving the snowmen quilt... Snowmen are my favorite for Christmas... Santa’s not bad...I’ve just always loved Snowmen ⛄️
I got two done with this blue fuzzy minkee. 
And look at how yummy that backing fabric looks. I learned a long time ago that when you’re quilting a minkee backing on a longarm that you CAN NOT stretch the backing as tight as you would normally do because if you do, when you take it off the longarm it will scrunch up like an accordion and nothing you do will make it lay flat. Ask me... abuse I know. Lol 😂 
I just
quilted them with a freehanded loop and swirl... since we could get several tops on the backings she bought, we thought it would be faster and easier to free float the tops and do them one after another.
Isn’t this Santa cute?😍
💗⛄️💗
Panels make great gifts, all you really need to do is maybe add a border or possibly cut the squares apart then maybe add a small border or two. Makes the perfect size for a toddler or a pre teen.
And just look at how stinkin cute the backing is😍💗
