Midnight Blue, Evening Blue, and Wild Watermelon are perfect colors for my name.
I love blue and it is nice to have a bit of reddish. I think it adds interest!
- Used variation of my Scattered Quilt Pattern, I constructed a small quilt.
- I quilted it with my name all over the quilt in a wavy design.
- Video of the quilting at Work in Progress - The Quilting.
- The quilt measures 30" X 32".
- Binding with an all machine embroidery binding and added a hanging sleeve on the top.
- Hung it on the wall behind my quilting machine.
I added all my tiny treasures..... Pins from quilting events and pins from when I was a teacher. Pins from Relay for Life including a photo of my Dad who died of cancer in 1996. My Mom is currently battling cancer. I pinned up my tiny crocheted items that I made years ago. Then I added charms, pins, and necklaces from four generations of my family. They all have special meanings. As I was going thru' my treasures, I found the little beaded pins from the 90's! Can you see the American Flag and the Packer G? I decided to group the items, but I certainly could have just put them up in any order.
What a delightful quilt project and the perfect spot for all the little memorabilia from the past. As I find more items, I will proudly display them on my quilted wall hanging.
Ok --- I know I said only a few words, BUT this one needed a description and I didn't type, I copied and pasted from my post on Project Quilting - My Tiny Treasures Quilts - It's all in the Initials .
