We NEED spring! Made a spring wall hanging.
 

I've been wanting to make a spring wall hanging for a while now, so finally I did. The latest blast of cold weather was the catalyst for this project. I searched the internet then searched my computer files for a spring wall hanging. I finally found this pretty design from Country Junktion. I am color challenged and the purple flowers were lost against the dark green. I did some outlining with yellow to brighten them. I'm thinking of adding a little more. What do you think? (Can't believe I'm letting you have a close up of my FMQ! It's a little shaky.)

Everything was square until I did the background quilting. Somehow the bottom of was skewed to the right. It was so bad that I fussy cut flowers from the border fabric and sewed them onto both the bottom corners. If you look closely, you can see the seams bending to the right where the blue meets the green. It's a little hard to tell unless you are close up to it. Now it looks like there are lovely bushes in the foreground. Disaster turned into treasure!

BTW: I saw a quote saying, "I would have made more of an effort to enjoy spring if I had known it was going to last only 3 days!"

really spring like

It's bright and beautiful and so spring-like! Great job!

I love your Spring Wall Hanging. Bright & cheerful.

Very pretty!!

Very pretty, especially with those extra flowers in the corners!

Like a breath of fresh air! I love it!

very pretty we had a taste of spring but then winter came back!!!

the wall hanging is beautiful. The quote you heard was so true...lol. We just got a foot of snow yesterday.

nicely done

Your choice of fabrics and your stitching are MUCH more attractive than the BOM example! Good for you!!!

So beautiful! Makes me want to try my hand at one.

thanks for the link homemother I see your located in Pennsylvania I'm in Lehigh valley pa by any chance do you have any spring to spare ? LOL! we just had a short lived spring now winter is back

Really, really cute!

Looks like spring......cute.

That is darling.

very nice I love it

Quite springy and cheerful!

Oh yes! We are in Chester Co. are in desperate need of spring! Last week I was sweating beads, this week I'm shivering! When the hot weather hits and we comment on the heat, we need to remind people that we are not complaining. We are just stating the weather and are not eager for another long winter.

Sew, so cute!!

That's cheery enough to melt the last of the snow! Reallu pretty - and I love the way you did all the flowers!

Beautiful! Vibrant colors and wonderful design!

I love your wall hanging! So cheerful! We are waiting for one season.....It's been winter, summer, spring, and a little autumn......a daily surprise! A little moisture would help!

The purple flowers look great on my end! The yellow outlining is a nice addition, but even without it I don't see any contrast problems on my end. Very lovely spring wallhanging; nice job!

Love it! Don't point out any mistakes. We are out own worst critics! I think it is perfect!

Lovely! I like the colors ;)

I like the bold colors, it is gorgeous!!! It would fit in my house beautifully!!!!!

Really pretty wall-hanging, very spring-like! And I love your quote, too true here in Nebraska, also!

Love it!!!

What an awesome hanging.
