    Default My "Birds of a Feather"

    This quilt has been in the process for many years. I posted a picture on here when I got the actual applique done. Then it sat for maybe three years. I found a border that I liked, then it sat some more. Found a LAQer that I wanted to try so took it to her. Got it back and it was lovely, but it sat some more. Found a method of putting the binding on by Sharon Schamber (sp) that I wanted to try. So, here it is. Hope you enjoy looking at it. Had to throw in a picture of my flowers too.

    Forgot to mention this is mostly needleturn applique. I started out using freezer paper then found I liked back basting. The most complicated pattern I have ever done but I think it turned out ok
