My first wall hanging
 
1 Attachment(s)
I made this into a wall hanging to brighten my mom's room. I used gold metallic thread to trace letters and shapes. Much fun. Will do that again. Any tips/suggestions very welcome.

I love this! Such a bright & cheery wall hanging that I would be over the moon with if my daughter made it for me! It's perfect just as it is :)

In my opinion no tips and/or suggestions are needed for your quilt. It's totally awesome. Your mother has got to be "over the moon" excited about receiving this wall hanging from you. I love everything about it.

Love it and I'm sure your mom does too.

Did you have any trouble with the thread? I use a thread stand so the thread can un-wind easily off the spool.

Look at the list here for part 1 and part 2 for metallic thread videos. There are helpful hints for you.

Just in case you need another fun thread to use for projects.
