Wall-Hanging Flimsy Finished

 I took the cover off my Juki and put borders on this pinwheel quilt I started last spring. Now I do not know if this is just me or if others do this too, but this is just the top! She is so far down in the queue to be basted and quilted I thought I would hang her and enjoy her for the spring. 

Pattern Gracie's Garden by Karen Bennett. Fabrics from my stash except the green dots as I wanted a nice bright green.

Happy sewing

Valentine Wall-Hanging

Hi everyone, Friday!

 Yippy Skippy!

 Hope you had a nice week. Hard to believe February is on the horizon.  Wow, time flies!

While on Instagram I met a lovely lady, Sharon.

She has a great on-line fabric store

and an etsy shope

One day she was selling the most adorable Valwntine Kit, with Pam Kitty Fabrics. I was lucky and was able to snach one of the kits!

Took three days to make!

Day one cut fabrics.

Day two sew and piece top.

Day three, spay baste and hand quilt in the ditch.

OK,  so one more day!

Day four bind and hang!

This was so much fun!

Hmm, sewing for the weekend, you bet!

How about You?

Have a wonderful weekend and I hope you do something you love.

A Flimsy!

Oh My Goodness,  

I am just tickled pink with this flimsy!  What fun I had with this wall-hanging.  I loved every second. Loved picking out what block to make. Loved picking out what colors to use in the block. Loved picking out the barn colors. Loved picking out the sashing fabrics.  

I loved it all!!

Now, I have not trimmed it yet because I do not know if I should add a border? and what color binding?

Advice please!

Happy Sewing!

Over a Year to Finish

I am so excited to share this wall-hanging with you!  It has taken me over a year to finish but I knew I had a deadline. October 2013~

Before I show you, in my last post I encouraged you to join fabric swaps. This is what I do with those charms. I did not buy one piece of fabric for this quilt. I had 10 inch squares of Kona and 5 inch squares of dots and prints. 

This is what I was able to make.

It is an Amy Bradley Pattern and can be found HERE.

Here are some close up's of the characters.

   

I just love how the Bride of Frankenstein is giving him the eye and like all men look at the dopey look on his face!

I even used scraps on the back!

And here she is hanging in her happy spot for the rest of the month.

I'm just saying you might want to rethink those fabric swaps!

Have a wonderful weekend and do something you love.
