Christmas Sparkle

     One of the many things that struck me at the Houston International Quilt Festival was the wide use of crystals to embellish many of the pieces on exhibit there. As I was looking at this wallhanging which I made a few years back, I realized exactly what it needed . . . sparkle, so I added crystals all over the tree. I really like how the whole tree sparkles when the light hits it. Unfortunately, this photo doesn't quite convey just how bright and truly sparkly it is!
