I just did a hoop sisters block of the month "Crazy Compass" and finished it today. It took all of last year, so I am really glad to have finished instead of having it on my UFO pile.
It was lots of fun, will be a gift for my daughter so I made it in colors I thought she'd like I used all fabrics from my stash except the back and border. There is even black velvet under some of the embroidery, and brown velvet.
I start another hoop sisters BOM Thursday, and have one about 3/4 done (TNT)
Since I love machine embroidery AND quilting, this is a great way to combine my 2 favorite hobbies.
And it seems that I need a design wall!!!
