WOW – February 6, 2013


I have been able to keep up my momentum and I finished my Henrietta Whiskers quilt and started quilting my Promise is a Promise quilt. This is the last quilt I have to complete for the quilt show. I will really feel good to have all four complete. 
All in all I’m very happy with the quilting on Henrietta Whiskers. I’m in love with the design I used on the border and I plane to use this again in the future. 

 

I quilted yesterday for about seven hours and got a good start on my Promise is a Promise quilt.  I’m not sure exactly what to do on the embroidery blocks all I have done so far is stich in the ditch around the block and quilt around the border of the embroider.  I feel like it need more quilt to please chime in if you have suggestion on the quilting.  I have used a small floral and leave design in the sashing.

 

Hope everyone has a good week.  Hopefully I can show you another finish next week.

Regards

Lisa

      http://www.elefantz.com/ You should be able to find it under Free Designs. This was her BOM for 2012. I really enjoyed stiching this one.

    Beautiful finishes. I'll look forward to what you decide to do with the embroidery blocks as I am working on that project also and was wondering about that. Love the pattern you used in the Border of Henrietta's
