Little projects.

 

Last week I was able to sneak in 2 little projects.  This first project is an applique pattern featured in the book: Applique Outside the Linesby  Piece O Cake designs. I love it.  Robin pieced and appliqued this wall hanging and I think it is just beautiful.   

I quilted a swirl in the borders and a swirl/circle design in the background fabric. I quilted around the applique to make it stand out. 


I think the colors in this project are fantastic and it was really fun to work on this wall hanging. I think the quilting texture is just beautiful for this sweet design.  Great project Robin!

 
This next project was completed by Emily, my dear friend.  She has a way of making every quilt she works on become more than just a quilt, but one with meaning.  She made this for a dear friend of hers and based it off a picture her friend found online.  I would like to give credit to the artist, but I haven't been able to find that - let me know if you know who it is by.  Anyway, it is just a fun little quilt and it was a joy to work on. 

 
I free motion quilted the feather/circle design. I got the idea to do this from the yellow fabric.  It had feathers throughout and I wanted to keep that design within the quilting.  It was really fun to quilt. 


The hexagons at the bottom are pure genius.  I love how Emily puts quilts together.


Close up of the feather/circle design.  It was fun. I used So Fine and Glide threads for the projects and just one layer of wool batting for both. Thanks everyone!
