I have lots to catch up on...
First my little hexagon quilt is coming along!
I decided to big stitch it so after appliqueing my flowers to the background, I cut away the background so I have one less layer of fabric to quilt through.
When I started basting I noticed that I didn't sew all the hexagon blocks in the same direction. I guess when I was putting this together I was just happily sewing away without much thought about what I was doing...
Can you spot the wonky ones???
So it was decision time...do I take it apart or do I leave it? I left it! I decided it was part of the charm!
Here is my thread choice.
And some progress...
I also worked on this cute little guy for my door. He is adorable!
The pattern was from The Wooden Bear Quilt Designs.
I finished machine quilting this quilt...
I basted this one for machine quilting...
And this beauty is ready to start hand quilting!!!!!!
So I am mostly caught up other than a few Christmas gifts I am making that I can't show...yet!
Happy Stitching!
I especially like the Churn Dash quilt and the applique flower pots. The colors on the applique quilt are vibrant.
ReplyDeleteI've sewn blocks together without minding the seam press direction and agree that it is part of the charm, and once quilted, this issue pretty much fades away. You've made so many lovely quilts! Beautiful work.
