As part of my job, I was required to make a Christmas project to display in the store every year. The following pictures are some of the quilts and wall hangings I have completed through the years.
This quilt is Christmas Windows. It was made with machine applique. I was working on this quilt when my father in law became ill. I cut out the applique shapes while setting with him in the hospital. After it was displayed in the store, I gave this quilt to my mother in law.
This quilt is named Christmas Ribbons. It was originally made scrappy.in the book. I made the quilt from two red and two black fabrics for the ribbons.
This is a wall hanging I made. The stars are pieced but the mistletoe shapes are applique made on the embroidery hoop. I also made cutwork files for the shapes so I didn't have to cut out all those small circles.
This is one of my newest Christmas projects. This is a pattern named Feathered Christmas. The shapes are from Sarah Vedeler's embroidery design files. There are cutwork and embroidery files for each shape. The pattern called for a checkerboard border. I liked it better with a solid border.
This quilt is from McKinna Ryan and is named Jingle Bear Rock. Have you noticed that I love applique?
This is simply a machine appliqued wall hanging. I challenged myself to only use scraps on this quilt so there was nothing purchased to make this project.This was made from a true type font and applique snow flakes. My Cutwork software and tool, and my V6 Artista Software was used.
