Nothing says Christmas like

gingerbread men! And, this

quilt just says "vintage" with

its reproduction fabrics and

homespuns, antique buttons and

rickrack! It was inspired by an

antique quilt and it is not only

timeless but beautiful. It is sure

to become an heirloom in your

family that will be passed down to

future generations.
