    Default Monthly Wallhangings

    I've got a shelf/quilt rod combo in my family room. Right now, the shelf is sort of a way to exhibit some of my sailor son's, and my computer son's achievements, my daughter worked at a pottery shop and made the 2 sailors. I decided last year the quilt rod would hold monthly wall hangings.

    They were also an exhibit of my free-motion improvements, showing how my skills advanced - slowly, VERY slowly.

    The first pic is what I had for October, and kind of shows the quilt rod I use

    The next photo is the back of my January wall hanging, showing the quilting. I ended up using a sparkly thread

    The third photo is the front. I was very happy with how it turned out, until I marked for the fmq. I used some yellow pencil, can't remember the name right now-I am positive I didn't iron over it, but it didn't all come out!

    What to do? Easy, just name it 'Yellow Snow!'

    Really nice. I really like your attic windows color choice for the "window frames", really gives the 3D effect.
