I used some left over’s from two other quilts to make this. My quilt guild will be donating it to Tree House they help foster children. I have been a forester parent so I’m really glad that is where it will go.
I fell like me FMQ has gotten better I was really happy with the way this turned out.

Very pretty, I wish i could get braver with my FMQ, I can stipple great, but just don't have the nerve to try other designs.

Great job Lisa! I think its beautiful. Bless you for being a foster Mom. Sometimes I think about that as my only son is grown and on his own. Too quiet around the house :)

From looking at the pictures close up, it looks like you did the binding on the machine. If so, was it hard?

jeanequilts 05-06-2011 09:02 AM

No it was not hard you just have to sew the binding to the back instead of the front. Then you need to sew slow and use a stiletto to keep the fabric from moving around. I only sew the binding on children’s quilts or thing I think will get washed all the time. It’s also a big time saver I would have spent at least 2 hours doing the binding by hand and I did it on the machine in 10min.
