Newest Quilt
(in progress)
(in progress)
for the past year i have been working on what i call my hummingbird quilt ... but now the idea has
expanded and its going to be a little bit of everything ... i have finished all the main 12" squares using
all 12 of the hummers and 8 of my flower collection ... i figured if i post the progress and date it each
time it will motivate me to finish it sooner rather than face the "when will this be done" comments
i am a big fan of linen ... this particular linen i am using is medium weight natural linen and it has been
"softened" ... which makes it softer to the touch
with the birds i used french knots for the quilting and for the flowers i used just a regular quilting stitch
so check back every once in a while and see how its coming along
