Here are some pics of my projects that are all started but not done. The table runner is the only one done but that is because I did the top and then my mom quilted it all together. Everything is hand sewn.

Lovely Star! I LOVE the bears and deers one - and the blue octogans especially but they're ALL great!
Hand sewn too - wow! That's what I used to do before I discovered the board, now I have so much on the go I HAVE to machine more! LOL |
Thanx, the bear one is for my husband. and the octogan i think is called a snowball, I started that one when I had my tonsils out and was in bed for 2 weeks. My husband wants to get me a machine but I think its just because he wants his quilt! :oops:
|
Hi . What beautiful work you have there. Great job. Love to see more.

Go STAR! You do beautiful work! Make more!

k3n- yeah I will let him, but I think I will only use it on quick projects until I get the hang of it. I won't give up the hand quilting either sonce i still have so much to learn, it may be slow but I really like it!

They look great. I think you have a good eye for color!
|
Star - I love your work and I know what you mean about hand-work. The machine will make things go faster, but I find handwork is more relaxing some times. I look forward to seeing more of your work.
|
gaigai- actually brfore I even really was to interested in quilting I would watch my grandma and mom together and go shopping for fabric with them. They took me along to pick out and match up colors! :-) I was just happy to be included
|
Beutiful work Star!!
|
I work in a factory but I like to just sit alone at break with my little tote bag and mark material or sew together small bocks. I think it helps me forget I'm at work for a min and if i only get a few done at least I found time to work on them
|

Hi Star
They are wonderful and you are very talented. I shy away from hand sewing more a machine person. Where did you get the bear fabric, was it online would they send to the UK?? i must have NOW for my stash !!!! Lou |
First of all welcome to the board, you will love it here. Your work is beautiful, wow hand sewn, I am impressed.
|
Those are great Star! You did really nice work!
|
Beautiful work!
I have a friend who is a dental hygienist and she used to hand sew everything, mostly during down time at work. Now she does machine sewing with a new machine. She just didn't even have a machine at all! Her hand piecing is exquisite! So precise and everything lays so flat! She is learning how to machine quilt now! |
very nice
|
Great Projects. I really like them all
Welcome from Washington |
Welcome from Virginia . I just love the wildlife quilt . Love animal fabric , I would like to have some of that , too . Hand piecing that is how I started out . I still do at times . What are you doing now ? I'm hand piecing small hexagons for a tote . Annie
|
stitchinMawmaw- Yes I liked this fabric also the quilt is for my husband. I think i got it at Walmart, but was a couple of years ago. The backing for it is also wildlife but ib color not silouette(don't think i spelled that right). Right now I am working on my doll quilt for the July swap.
|
That's where I get my fabric , too . I just got some with [ bears , antelope , deer , wolves and bighorn sheep ] . Love my animal fabric , can you tell ? Annie
