    Default Woo-hoo, a UFO done!

    After finishing my little Valentine wall hangings, I was digging in my scrap bins for greens to make something shamrock. Lo and behold, I found two strips of binding that matched the inner border of this wallhanging. Unfortunately, I was about 4" too short. So back to the bins. I found two large HST's with the same fabric. I salvaged the 4", attached the binding, and added more echo quilting. The FMQ was done last November when I was practicing. It's not perfect, but it's for my bedroom, so I'm the only one who has to be pleased with it. I guess it pays to save one's scraps

    Very cute, it reminds me of tulips. "Come look in the garden bed, something beautiful is growing..... bright shaped like a cup all red, tulip open to the sun..." We used to sing this in rounds when we were children.

    the tune sounds cute. the block is supposed to be rosebuds, but they look like tulips to me too
