Pink Nine Patch Variation wall hanging designed by
Alex Anderson. The pink & white colored fabrics create a fun theme.
The quilting is an allover stipple design which
blends in with the print
fabric full of squiggles!
You know spring is on its way when you see this wall hanging decorating
my walls! The large rabbit is jumping to catch fluttering 3D
butterflies.
This is a little quilt I stitched alternating floral embroidery designs
on blank blocks and a print block. Machine embroidered quilting motifs
embellish the solid purple border and freehand stippling is stitched
around them embroidery.
A closer photo showing the embroidery design and freehand stippling
detail. These designs are from
Floral Delights by Hatched in Africa. I love all the detail and
shading the designs display.
I used
embroidery quilt motifs to quilt the border. The cotton Oliver
twist thread, colors of purple, lilac and pink, enhances the purple
color theme and creates a
neat look on the backing.
This is a snowmen paper pieced wall hanging that I made for my aunt! The
snowmen are so cute with all their different colored scarves! Two
outside borders surround the snowy friends. It is quilted by stitching
in the ditch and then abound with blue fabric to keep the tan, burgundy
& blue color scheme.
Here is a close-up of the paper pieced birdhouse. I machine embroidered
two little bluebirds.
To quilt the center, I stitched diagonal lines across the 6" blocks.
Stitching in the ditch covered the borders for quilting.
Don't forget the quilt label!! I machine embroidered the lettering, cut
it down and attached it to the blue fabric with a decorative stitch. I
then hand tacked it to the quilt.
