Chili is a reindeer quilt pattern designed by Heidi Cook for Villa Rosa Designs, and Fabric Bash has put together this kit pairing the pattern with fabrics chosen to make it. The finished quilt measures 36" x 40", a manageable size for a holiday wall hanging, a table topper under a seasonal centerpiece, or a small lap quilt to tuck under the tree as a gift.
The design is made of bold, simple shapes. A soft brown reindeer face with dark diamond eyes and a black nose sits against a cream background, crowned by branching dark antlers. Pinwheel-style triangle blocks fill the top corners, and a narrow dark border frames the whole picture. The neutral palette leans more rustic cabin than candy-cane red, so Chili can stay on display from late fall through the end of winter.
As pictured, the kit includes the Chili pattern with a cream fabric and darker fabrics in black, gray, and brown tones. Backing, batting, and thread are not shown in the kit photo, so plan on gathering those separately. The compact size keeps cutting, piecing, and quilting manageable when you want a seasonal project finished in time for December decorating.
