A Finish!

I am really happy with my latest project.  It turned out beautifully!  It is inspired from a pattern of a door banner in McCall's Quilting Quick Quilts magazine from March 2000.

It is a small wallhanging.  I machine appliqued using a buttonhole stitch.  I then machine quilted in a cross-hatching pattern using invisible thread.

Don't forget the label!!  (I will post more about this in the near future.)

And here it is in it's new home... my kitchen!!

I Did It!!

Well, I have finally done it!  I have joined the world of bloggers!

I think this will be a great place for me to share all of my quilting projects and ideas, and hopefully make some new friends at the same time.

I am also hoping this will help me finish up some of my UFOs or WIPs.  I have way too many of those and am thinking this blog might make me feel more accountable and I might actually get stuff done!

I have been working on these blocks for the past few days... getting the machine applique done.  They are from a Block of the Month offered by Bunny Hill Designs back in 2009.  I will hopefully be able to show you more progress soon!

Have a great weekend!
