Here are some pics of projects I have pieced. Please be gentle as I am still a newbie. Have only done these few projects in three years or so. Life and work got in the way. Now that I am unemployed, a student, and not stressed, quilting is back in my life.

The three hearts were the first project I sewed on my new Janome 6600P. I attempted applique, machine stitching, stablizing, quilt label, and a hanger all on the same quilt! :roll:

There is one quilt I missed putting in here. Will post later.

The large quilt is made of flannels, is sized for my king sized bed. and will have a flannel backing as soon as I get to my fav LQS. I think I will do a random stipple in this one.
I loved all the colors in this one except for the one that is a bit orange stripe. It is actually a heavy cotton of some type. It was in the kit, so I used it. However, I would take it out if doing one
again.

The other heart one is my first attempt alone (no quuilt teacher/friend watching and guiding) at HST. I think I will make it a wall hanging.

Anyway, be honest and let me know what you think. Thanks for looking.
gain.

Hearts to You

Don't remember the name. Was fun to make. Have to work on my corners and such.

Another kit. My DD does not like the bright colors mixed in. I do!

Thank you Amma. :wink: I am not one to show my work nor to ask for opinions, but that is one reason I love this forum - everyone encourages and lifts up. Thank you so much.

No this was not. Thinkl it was a pattern in one of the magazines.
Thanks for your kind words of encouragement.

The quilts are great and your field makes a perfect background. I'm feeling all "Little House on the Prairie"! :D
