Hey Missi,
I think your choice of fabrics compliment her center very nice.
Its funny because that is the same border pattern I'm thinking of doing on Purplemom's that is in my sewing room now, but it will be a couple weeks before I can get to it yet. Trying very hard to get the house in some kind of order (other than the mess it is) before starting something else.
Again, very nice work.

Barb I am so glad you like it :)

AkAngel don't forget when you measure it out to make it fit that the four patches measure longer across the diagonal then they do on the edges - that was my first mess up. Then when I had to redo them at the right size I didn't have enough fabric and I couldn't remember for the lift of me where I bought it :) Crazy but sooooo much fun.

I can't wait to start on the next one!!!!!

Hi there, well this is what I have done to Tricia´s Quilt, Hope you like it.

Unfortunately I had my machine give up the ghost so waiting for a part so that I can finish the sewing on it.

Ugly words and more you can bet. Its the bobbin case, there is a bit got broken off the top of it and it just doesn´t want to play any more. :evil: That is my second border I had it all finished and when I turned it over it had got all loopy and horrible, :? definately not ready to go round the world, so off it came (can you imagine, the air was blue) :( Never mind its all ready to go when I get the part (about a week)

Thank you for the lovely compliment. This is the second time this has happened to this particular machine so I really am not happy. Trying to keep calm, glad I held on to my old trustoworthy Toyota, however it doesn´t have the nice stitches to do applique.

Beautiful Elle, as usual!
I'm still trying to decide what to do with this one I have.
I THINK I have it figured out, but really NOT sure!
Maybe I'll just keep it and hang it on my wall. It does have a cute kitty on it. lol

I'll start working on it this weekend and most likely get it all finished.
It's not due to be mailed out until next month, so there's still time for me to change my mind, which WILL most likely happen!

Hi terri, glad you like it. Sometimes it is really hard to figure out what to do. That particular pattern was out of a book I had and was really a quilting pattern I turned it into applique. :D
