Want more Christmas Countdown?
This is the fifth year of the Christmas Countdown. The previous years were all made with 4″ blocks. Each year made a quilt, but for the most adventurous of quilters, all four years can be combined into the 100 Block Christmas Quilt.
Click Here to check out the 100 Block Christmas Quilt and all the past years of the Christmas Countdown!
Join us on our Christmas Countdown Facebook Group!
Be sure to share your Simpler Times progress with us on Facebook and Instagram using the hashtag #ChristmasCountdownQuiltAlong
AQS Members Get Even More!
Next year we’ll be counting down to Christmas all year long with a stunning quilt inspired by snowflakes: Twilight Flurries. AQS members get early access to the patterns this December before they release to everyone next year.
There are more ways than ever to countdown to Christmas with us and we’re so excited to see what you make!
I cannot find Block 3 on your Pinterest site so I can save it to my pinterest. I looked everywhere, tried MANY different headings – nothing
Hi Geri, Please feel free to use the block images from the post for block 3 to pin. All of the images are pinnable. Thanks, Betsey
Super cool to have the opportunity to do a block along.
