A Peck of Pears is the perfect size for a wall hanging- I can't wait to hang this in my office. Most of the fabrics I used are from the Simple Abundance and Old Mill House lines from Moda, which should be in stores now. I hand appliqued this one and it went pretty quickly, the pattern contains directions for both hand applique and fusible machine applique.
Does anyone remember the "cat poop" quilt?? Well this is it- minus the stains, thanks to the dry cleaners. It's called Noelle, it is a Christmas wall hanging with a very cottage-y look. There are button flowers in the applique design, as well as lots of buttons scattered in the bottom border for some extra fun....
Finally, a pattern for a Ruffled Flower Pin shows how to make a pin in 2 different sizes, and you can use wool, cotton, ribbon, etc. There are lots of variations for this pattern, so you might just get carried away making tons of these for gifts! You can even use up the selvedges off of your pretty cotton fabrics that usually just get thrown away.
All of the patterns are available on the website.
It's time to do some last minute packing so we can fly off to Houston for Quilt Market- yay!
Maybe I will see some of you there- I will be in booth #1037. See ya!
Love, love the pear quilt!! Something about a quilt that is beautiful and comforting all at once.
