And now the story...
I got these lovely fabrics as I'm an individual member of the MQG.
So I have been pondering for months! Oh dear since October!!
I tried this block with some solids earlier this month and was happy but not enough to go forward with a larger project.
Then I just jumped and make this wall hanging.
That's right . . I started yesterday! Ugh!
Well first I misplaced my Pfaff face-plate for anything other than straight stitch, and then I found that my other machine I have set up .. is missing some feet. Important feet I may tell you. Still all missing by the way. But I got it. . it's all good. I basted this beauty and let it sit for today.
And then. . the cat! Oh the cat.
Apparently he thinks that Washington's birthday means he gets all the attention. At one point I had in in my lap while I was stitching.
HOURS I fought with the cat but finally got down to binding.
And now...
A wall hanging
I'm super proud of my growth with my FMQ. It's so perfect in my eyes.
A finish means I get to go shower.
:)
Happy Monday

It is so stunning! I love it! Congratulations!!!
ReplyDeleteLooks awesome! Where did you get your labels? I think I'm ready to order some for myself.
ReplyDeleteI got them from Tags to Go on Etsy. I also requested them with 3/8" seam allowance on both sides just for quilt + binding
DeleteOf course you need to shower, you have to wash the cat off ;o)
ReplyDeleteLove the finish though, well done :o)
Yea for finishes. I'm down to the wire too.
ReplyDeleteGreat job. I love the design you chose.
ReplyDeleteGreat finish!
ReplyDeleteIt turned out great! Excellent job!
ReplyDeleteLast minute is when we get our best work accomplished. I am glad you were able to work around your missing presser foot. Your quilt turns out great.
ReplyDeleteIt's fantastic! I didn't love all of the fabrics in the challenge. I think we may have the same favorites. :)
ReplyDeleteYour cat is too much! :) What is it about cats and quilts? Mine won't leave me alone when I am quilting either. You did a fantastic job on your quilting, especially with all the help you got from Mr. Kitty.
