    Default Potential Projects

    I am planning on a very long work in progress project. The cars is what I will be starting first since my cousin loves old cars! I figure 9 blocks, a solid color sashing and viola! The sewing themed one..hmmm still thinking on that one! Ideas are most welcomed!

    ??? Are you going to hand embroidery the cars??? or digitize them for machine embroidery? Hmmm...if digitizing, could even do machine applique...lots of choices! This will be an interesting quilt...will love to see the finished product!

    Wow! That will be a lot of work, hopefully you have a lot of fun. Will enjoy seeing your work along the way.

    I have used the Aunt Martha's iron-ons many times over the years. In fact, I still have a bunch. Since I got my embroidery machine I don't use them any more. Not sure what I actually have..... Maybe it's time to clean out that drawer.

    Both of those would make great quilts.

    I think your 'sewing' designs would go well in this 'Gardiners Journal" type of quilt.

    I also love to hand embroider. You reminded me of a wonderful 50 state birds and flowers collection I have from Aunt Martha's. I need to make them and get them into a quilt.
