I finished off this piece yesterday.... I had done the stitching some time ago so when I had finished a quilt job I continued with the same thread and quilted this up....
... so that is a Christmas finish for this month .... linking up to 1 Christmas Item a Month hosted by Narelle....
I made up this quilt long ago... lots of 4 inch blocks......
They look like circles from a distance....
quilted all over with curved lines linking them all.....
... and I have finally finished sewing all the leaves on this block for Civil War Bride....
It only needed the binding sewing down which took a couple of evenings.... it's not a very big quilt.... healthy lap quilt size.....
This is a WOOFA project hosted by Cheryll....
you can see two of them are not completely attached.... they will be sewn down once it is trimmed and joined to its neighbours.... the next block is big birds... peacocks I think...
I did get some more half hexagons glued and stitched on Tuesday.... the pile is growing... soon I will need to make some colour decisions...
I am not a good OPAMer , hosted by Kris, but I do have a few finishes this month.... the two at the top of here, a sweet bunting, a table runner and the rail tracks quilt.... you can join up anytime and there is no pressure...
Righto, Gotto Go..... I am playing with my Tim Holst scraps today.....
love the look of that Civil War Bride block, great fabrics
