Lots of stitching on my Humble Quilts QAL project this week resulted in a finish!
I backed and bound it in this brown that has a sort of swirly effect when you see it in person. It's called Shadow Play, by Maywood Studios.
After finishing that little quilt, I picked my Kathy Schmitz embroidery back up, and have made good progress on it after a couple evenings.
The pattern calls for lots of spaces - like the clover leaves - to be filled in with satin stitch, and I haven't done any of that yet. I may just leave them the way they are right now.
That looks so nice on your table, and the backing really complements all those pretty blocks. I still love that blue with the fall colors!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty little quilt. Your embroidery is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteVery cute finish, you always seem to have just the right color accessories to match!
ReplyDeleteThe blue border with the brown center is perfect! Your embroidery looks fine to me without the satin stitching. Happy stitching!
ReplyDeleteit is nice to have a quilted mat of some type on the table isn't it. The big fire out there is west of you right? are you having trouble with the smoke or is it all blowing west? I hope it doesn't get into the park
ReplyDeleteThe embroidery is cute. It looks great not filled in.
ReplyDeleteLove that blue border on the browns--nice quilting work on this, too. It looks so pretty on your table : reminds me of brown leaves and an Autumn sky...nice work;))) Hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet finish, Diann!!!
ReplyDeleteThe little quilt looks so happy and pretty on your table. I admire embroidery skills; I'm not very good at it, but I enjoy seeing other's work.
ReplyDeleteLove your little quilt, and Bee Kind was a fun one to do! I didn't fill in the clover myself. Have a great week, and great stitching day
ReplyDeleteWow! That table topper turned out great! Your embroidery project is really cute. I'm not a fan of satin stitching, so a lot of the time I just outline it. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great finished quilt! Love it. Your stitchery looks great so far.
ReplyDeleteCute little table mat, and your embroidery is coming along well. Which reminds me, I havent looked at my own hand stitching for much too long!
ReplyDeleteYour mini quilt looks great there! So nice to have finishes The bee kind looks great I didn't do the satin stitches either, maybe some day I'll be brave enough to go there!
ReplyDeleteYour little quilt is lovely and how fabulous it looks displayed on your table. The colour of the backing fabric is perfect and love the quilting pattern showing through. Your 'Always Bee Kind' always makes me smile. It is so very sweet. Enjoy your Sunday happily stitching away.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely finish, Diann. The touch of blue added a nice sparkle to your quilt and hand quilting it was the perfect finish!
