Hello Everyone
Here is a top I completed today while home from work. (well I have to put one more border on it) It is called Earth's Window. This one is going to be my very first attempt at hand quilting! (wish me luck :-) )
Hugs
April

Thank you everyone! I love landscape fabrics and I finally was able to put this together. It was a simple pattern and went together nicely (except for one of the cornerstone rows which we fought about 4 times before I got him to work right lol)
I will post pictures as I hand quilt it. I am thinking I am going to use different colors and different things in each window. Perhaps some stars in the night sky, a sun in the day sky....we shall see
Thank you all again for your wonderful compliments
And thanks for the vote of confidence Nikki-I sure need it :-)
Hugs
April

April, you did a great job on this quilt! I love your thought of stars in the night sky, a sun in the day sky, maybe some sea shells at the beach. Great idea and a great quilt!
