Pansys

Practicing my quilting. This is a paper pieced wall hanging by MH Designs called Pansy Garland. I quilted all over tear drops in the background and free motion feathers in the border. Then I added a few buttons.
Not an expert but having fun and getting better every day:).

Winter Decor

I made a snowflake runner using an Accuquilt snowflake and machine embroidery from here http://shop.b-quilts.com/ .   This runner was made to practice my FMQ. You can see some of my swirls that I am learning from Amanda Walters on http://www.craftsy.com. I used the faux piped binding again because I really like the added touch of color at the edge and I really like machine sewn binding. The white snowflakes are made with Fairy Frost fabric and the rest is batik.  I think it turned out beautiful and I am gifting it to my son. Hope everyone's New Year is starting out great!
