Christmas wall hanging
 
1 Attachment(s)
Post cataract surgery I was itching to do SOMETHING, anything. Fine work is still daunting. So when my latest issue of Quiltmaker arrived I took it as a sign! One week later I hung this over the dining room table. Even my DH, Mr. Bah Humbug himself couldn't complain. I'm not surprised that it is a bit wonky in places as I DID work with two eyes at different focal lengths. But I managed by swinging my magnifying Aut(sp) light in front of the needle area of my machine. It was pretty good as you can see. I'm pleased.
Enjoy

Your quilt is perfect, don't see any wonky at all. I don't think I could do this well with 2 good eyes. You are to be commended, it is beautiful!

Very nice! Was it difficult to work with the metallic fabric?

Not really. It tended to fray quickly but as it was appliqued I could control it with starch and glue.

I'm glad you can get back to sewing. A quilters got to do, what a quilters got to do. I get cranky if I'm away from my machine too long. Really nice wallhanging for the holiday season.

That is one of the cutest I have seen
