Default What your favorite project you've ever done?

I would love to see the favorite projects of other quilters.

My favorite project, I made a quilted dressage saddle pad for a Christmas present for my sister 2 years go. Her eventing colors are royal purple and black. The top is duck cloth, the backing is flannel, and the padding is 1/4" foam. I was able to use my run of the mill $100 machine to do the top, but I had to use my mom's industrial machine to do the quilting and binding. I also had to use glue spray to keep the layers together for quilting. A coworker of mine does embroidery as a side business, so I had her put the horse's name on the back left-hand side. The saddle pad is holding up well and my sister loves it.

I can see why that would be your favorite project. It is awesome! My favorite project tends to be whatever I am working on at the time. Today it is a Jenny Doan quilt, "Falling Charms". Tomorrow it will probably be "Country Cottages" that I am in the process of FMQ.

Great job on the saddle pad. I really enjoy making bow tucks purses.
