I have been busy, busy stitching. I want to share with you a picture of "12 Days of Christmas". It is about ready for quilting. The pattern shows some rail fence blocks appliqued down in the lower left corner. I am thinking about whether I want to add them or leave it blank. For a refresher, in case you have forgotten, the pattern is by Cheri of Wednesday's Quilts.
Next, I have completed two smaller size wall hangings. The patterns I used are by Karen of Sew Primitive. You can visit her blog here. You can see the patterns she has for sale listed on the right hand side of the blog. Karen has a very creative mind and has a lot of artistic talent. Have a look when you have time.
The first one is from her "Berks County 1850" pattern. The floral fabric in the background is from a line of fabric that Jo Morton designed.
I used the "Album Quilt 1870" pattern for the second quilt. The album print is also a Jo Morton fabric. The fabric is the same one Karen used in her sample quilt. I think it is a very creative use for it. The needlework piece the girl is holding is made using one of the squares taken from the print. The square is placed over a cardboard circle which is glued to the background of the quilt. The edges are loose.
Back to the sewing room.
