Here are the results of HOURS of hard work...well at least the quilt took hours. I should have kept track of the hours I spent cutting out the pieces, piecing them together, adding the strips to make it the right size, quilting by hand the whole thing (minimum of 42 hours) and then binding the thing. But no matter, that was the point. My intent was to create by my own hand an heirloom for my posterity...some grand or great-grand might want to have a piece of the past...the quilt that was on Grandma and Papa's bed for as long as they can remember. Treat it well.
Thanks to Jen, I now have a "vinyl" decoration on my wall. It only took 3 hours to get it up there...dad would have had a cow if he would have seen me on top of a picnic bench on top of the picnic table. No worries, I said a prayer before getting up and just went slow.
Both of your projects look so good! I love the quilt and the vinyl turned out so good!
ReplyDeleteDitto to what Jen said. You are one talented lady!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I would have had a cow too if I saw you on the picnic bench on the picnic table. :-\ You're grounded.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Kim! You are grounded! Dad always said "Use the right tool for the job"! You should have borrowed a tall ladder! I love the Quilt! Carolyn
