I was reminded of this wall hanging yesterday and realized that I haven't updated this blog in a while. To be honest, I haven't done any sewing this month. With my daughter moving back with her friend, my sewing room became the place to store everything, but slowly, it's getting cleaned back out and I can get motivated again.
This wall hanging I called Jonathan's Star. It was made from the scraps of Sally's graduation quilt. The star pattern was on the cover of one of Grannie's old magazines and I made the pattern from the picture. It was my nephew's gift.
This is all the wall hangings I did for Christmas this past year. They were machine and hand pieced and all hand quilted.
The snowman was for my Grandmother. My pictures didn't come out too good, but Grannie love it. The red and white was done for my neice, Crystal. I see alot of pictures and try to make patterns from them. This is one such example. The red diamonds are actually strips of about 5 shades of tye died reds I used to make some scrafs. I quilted with red thread, snowflakes in the white blocks. It wa actually prettier than the picture lets on and she was happy with it. I've got about 5 months to figure out what I'm going to do this Christmas.
