| Little leaves |
Hi all! Thanks for joining me today! Whew! I got it finished! I was kind of sweating it because well, come back Saturday and see my epic fails!! LOL
 |
| My big pumpkin! |
Anyway, I have a very dear friend who decorates beautifully for each holiday and she expressed interest in different table runners! I said well I can try that!! :o) She knows I am still new (ish) and still learning but she is amazing and tells me that even errors are beautiful! I love my Kathie! So for Fall I came up with this little guy and I am sure she will be pleased with it! This was my first project that I did FMQ on! (well, besides practice sandwiches!) I think it turned out well and I am pretty proud of myself! I know that the pics of it sitting outside it looks wonky, but I assure you this is the grass! I just had to take a pic outside! I placed it on my (fake) fireplace to snap a quick pic! After it was done my daughter and her Boyfriend (whos Monther is in quilt guild) with me each had their own critique for me!! Sheesh they can be harsh! LOL I didn't follow a pattern, but I did get the template for the pumpkin here. it did call for more pieces, but I really liked the look of just the one fabric so I stuck with it! I am after all a rule breaker!

ReplyDeleteMe gusta mucho esta calabaza tan chata y el detalle de las hojas le da un poco más de relleno. El acolchado apenas se ve en las fotos.
ReplyDeleteIt's all about the fun, or we wouldn't be doing it! I think your pumpkin runner is great, and your FMQ does not look like a beginner did it. Great job!
