I started quilting in April 06. Have worked hard at improving the skills of quilting. Still need a LOT of practice. My biggest problem is matching colors. I am not creative. Hope you like what I have already done (and gave away). these are some wall hangings that I did mostly for practice.

if that's just practice, they will need to redefine perfect. :-)

Your angels are beautiful! Are they applique or embroidery or some other technique?

I'd have to say that you certainly don't need any more practice :!: All three are just fabulous :!:

Rita,
all of those look great, so I figure the practice was for posting them...! Which I have to add needs no more help. Keep on going! Love seeing them.

all ythree are simply wonderful please give us more info on how they were done

All three wall hangings were machine embroiderd and then just quilted by stippling around the design and stitching in the ditch on the rows. I enjoy doing them as they can be completed in a short time. The log cabin quilts were done with a 1 inch (light color) sewn with a 1 1/2 inch strip (dark color) the block measures out to 10 1/2 inch square unfinished. I added extra rows as the kids wanted them to hang over the mattress. They are used as a bedspread.

All three are great! I'm not a color expert but I think your color choices are real good. Keep up the good work.

In stitches,
