A FINISH AND A PEEK

My Hometown Birdie quilt is quilted and bound.  I took it outside in the daylight to try and get a half decent picture...except it was snowing!  So, I settled for the bench outside the door.


I like it much better now that it's quilted.  Thanks once again Linda : )


These little loopy hearts are one of my favourite quilting designs.  One day, I'll be able to do it myself!


Here's a little peek at something I'm currently working on.  I need hubby to mount it on a frame, and then I'll show you.  This has been a fun and quick little project so I may be making several.


Today I'm also linking up with Fresh Sewing Day over at Lily's quilts.  It's fun to see what everyone is working on.

    I'm glad I found you, too. We seem to have a lot in common and our quilt styles are the same.

    You just have to relax and then you will be quilting the hearts in no time at all.

    Beautiful quilt! I was going to ask what fabric line you used, but the previous comments cleared that up for me. Is that a pattern that you designed? Love the quilt, love the quilting.
