This is a little whole cloth quilt - leaves hand stitched and stars machine stitched - with a bit of flannel for batting. I made one very similar and then this one to work on a few things I learned from the first one and so I will go towards the next ones with what I have learned from this.
I am really so excited about this edge. A sensitive edge maybe?
But for today - my biggest sweetest boy is eleven. We will be busy preparing and partying these next few days.
More stitching next week.
Very nice!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am so excited and have lots if ideas for this edge.
DeleteGosh your machine stitching is as stunning as your hand stitching Susan, love those edges
ReplyDelete& 11 what a good number to be!
Hey thanks, Mo. I think scaling things up a bit will open lots of possibilities, but I had to see how small I could go first. Exciting.
DeleteSusan I cant wait to see where you are going with this intriguingly beautiful leaf star edge experiment !
ReplyDeleteHappiest of Celebrations with your Birthday Boy !
Thanks Linda, it's exciting. I feel like I am on the right path towards working out some ideas that have been on my mind for awhile now.
DeleteAnd party prep is going well!
This is exciting! Your little leaf quilts are wonderful and Mo is right about the quality of the stitching. Nice! Happy birthday to your eleven year old...what a great age to be.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Dana. I am looking forward to scaling things up a bit to see how that works out too. Those little starts were tricky but I really like the effect.
Deleteamazing! how do you do it?
Deletehow's he doing now 11 has happened?
