She asked me to quilt it back in August and it's finally getting the priority it deserves (sorry Sister - ready for Christmas ? )...
The panels and coordinating fabric are from "Susybee" - aren't they darling ? They whip up fast and are great gifts for the little folks in your lives.
There are several different designs including a Lamb and a Bird. I quilted "Mary had a Little Lamb" back in August.
I recently purchased Angela Walters new book "Free Motion Quilting" and I used the "Allover Leaves" design to do the border on the Giraffe.
BTW: I love the book -- well worth having if you are doing your own quilting.
I had a blast doing this and it's a great way to practice, practice, practice!
We're buckling down for the rain and wind expected to hit the Northeast today.
I think we're ready personally - as are our kids and our extended family.
Be safe everyone.
Thanks for stopping by.
