My very first was a small applique wall quilt. I did cheat and enlarged the pattern 200% so I could manage it easier. It will be back on my sewing room wall after I wash the yellow marks off it. This is the first time in over 14 years that it has been washed. I will try and get a pic for you to see tomorrow if the camera batteries are still good.
Yes I did it ALL. It took me 3 years to complete and it is the only big hand quilted quilt I have done. It was for my mum and she loves it but will not put it on her bed. She has 2 little chihuahuas and is afraid that their nails will rip the stitches. Thanks for the compliment.
The one on your "picture" is a beautiful appliqué, did you do it??
Well I don't blame her for her concern about those nails ripping it. Too bad that it can't be seen tho. Can she hang it on the wall above the bed or somewhere where it can be seen and appreciated. Hummm :?: :?: :?:
