The Fabric of Christmas

The casting was terrible. These two had zero chemistry and were poorly matched. She looks like she could be his mother and gives him advice like he's a child. The other casting was equally as bad and seamed forced. Her competitor was a very talented actress.

As a quilter, don't know anyone who works like this, Throwing fabric around and saying you're a fiber artist is so overly dramatic. She sewed with the square upside down and in the center of the square, which is not at all how you create a square. The ideas that a new sewer is going to make a quilt in their spare time by Christmas when they were past Thanksgiving (less than. Month) isn't even reality. The pattern they chose was very advanced for skill level and timeframe.

Her shirt was inside out with the tag showing and who did her hair? Not flattering at all.

The set was nicely done and some key clothing items were nice.

This is one of the best "cheesy" Christmas movies I have ever seen. Ferelith Young knocks it out of the park with her performance, showing the joys and fears of relationships both romantic...and professional. If sincerity could be acted, Young manages to accomplish the impossible. Her warmth is what makes one's heart sing.

If you think you've watched too many Christmas movies this year, don't pass this one up. The story feels adult. The childishness of other films' conflict resolutions is avoided here. It is heartfelt. The Fabric of Christmas will inspire you to pursue understanding and love for even those with whom you disagree.

I have watched numerous romance movies from hallmark, reel and others. This was a pleasure to watch, thanks to the lead actress. She smiled a lot during the movie which is often done in romance movies, but in this case, it was nice to see her smile. If another person acted the role, this movie will be hard to watch. Making quilt is not as exciting as I thought it would be bu the leading actress made it fun to watch. I think she is under-rated and should be in more movies. The side story with the sister was a nice addition. The supporting actors were good also. The useless drama in such movies was toned down, which was nice. Highly recommend it as a clean, family oriented movie.

A delightful Holiday film complete with the usual suspects, lights, cookies, snow, but that is why we watch them. I was drawn to this story because of the quilting aspect since I have done traditional quilting and Art quilting. I was surprised this movie had both.

The male lead is a rule following sexy fireman who finds safety violations in a community center where the lead female teaches traditional quilting.

The pair bond when he needs to make a quilt as a gift and turns to her for instruction. Together they help each other overcome obstacles in their own lives, creating a bond.

Scene stealers are his best friend and her two best friends, all good characters.

I was impressed with how much detail was put into the quilting story that was factual, including the inspiration and taking photos and the tools actually used. Someone really gets quilt makers and Art quilt makers. The only thing that was more improbable, was the pattern that he picked out for his first quilt. That would be a pattern for an advanced quilter. But the quilt itself was beautiful. A nice way to pay tribute to the art. Fun movie overall.

Ok, there is no way that quilt got finished in one night. The binding alone could take a couple days, but piecing stars is time consuming.

It takes quite a while to piece together a quilt that size with that type of pattern...

And while were at it.... the actress that plays his sister would have been a better Amy.

From a costume standard and I am aware that the costume designer is a pro but she needed a necklace for Amy to break up the exposed skin.

His sisters wedding dress, could have been more stylish for a vintage dress.

I know the costume budgets for these productions and I know how popular Christmas movies are but please raise the bar.... I only watched it for the quilt aspect... for the most part it was tough to watch.
