Quilting New Year's Resolutions for 2015???

[Janet K.]

Annis, what a great idea for all those blocks! Janet

[Lois B.]

Nice work Annis.

[Annis C.]

Thanks, everyone. Most of the time I machine sew the binding to the front and hand sew it to the back. I figure with all of the time saved on the quick piecing methods I use and the computerized quilting, I can take a little time and do some hand sewing on the binding.

Achieved so far this year - finally got WotRott basted and will be able to start quilting :woohoo: (once I've cleared off the big sewing table inch: )

Made a Bonnie Hunter Weed Whacker quilt and finished it! hmy:

Feeling very chuffed with myself for this one. B)

Love that scrappy look!! Size ??

[Rita C.]

Lovely work Annis. I really like that quilting design. Having tried a few long-arm machines at a couple of shows I know that it's not that easy to do it well so I am very impressed.

Rosemary, I love that weed-whacker block and keep thinking about doing one myself. Well done.

[Rita C.]

Love that scrappy look!! Size ??

You guessing?

[Rita C.]

Rita, it would make a great leaders and enders project, once you decide on the size of your strips.

[E.M. T.]

I'm thinkin' scary !!! You did say little !

[Rita C.]

I would guess that the finished block is 3"?

[Rita C.]

Welll..... you could use it for a mug rug :whistle:

Approx. 8 3/4" square. Each strip was 3/16 wide finished (except when I went a bit wonky) It was much easier to sew on my treadle than on my modern Janome, because of the needle plate and teeth are closer together.

[Rita C.]

Holy moly Rosemary, you are bonkers! It's amazing. Are you going to enter it at FoQ in the miniatures section this year? You should.

[Rita C.]

I might well do at that. Although I still love the pattern and am contemplating doing another one to see if I can get it a bit more accurate next time. If I do, I will probably enter that one instead. I admit to a bit of rushing with this one, just to see if I could.

[Rita C.]

But are the imperfections visible to the naked eye? :blink: Did you starch the bejayziz out of the fabric first?

[Nancy R.]

Beautiful, Rosemary! And incredible!! I have a whole list of Bonnie Hunter quilts I want to make, but I'm going to stick with BIG!
