Year in Review Part 3

Another mini quilt from the Kim Diehl Simple Whatnots Club One. The simple four patches are appealing to me.

A little hand stitching from a book by Gail Pan called Patchwork Loves Embroidery. I really enjoy the hand embroidery. Haven't decided yet what project these blocks will become. I was thinking of somehow incorporating them in a hexagon quilt.

Another picture from the summer, Boo Boo sitting on the front stairs. He sits out front and greets anyone walking by on the sidewalk.

Stitched and framed for fall. A little freebie project I finished. I couldn't find the original site for this pattern but you will find a link on this Pinterest page to a blog with the imagine that can be printed.

Layer cake quilt using Bonnie and Cammille fabrics called Hello Darling. Fresh and pretty colours in this quilt. Soon to be machine quilted, so I'll post more on this quilt.

The Bunnyhill Christmas Wheels quilt finished and on the wall for 2015. I bought the kit for this quilt which included a jelly roll and charm pack of Bunnyhill Designs fabric. It was very disappointing to discover the red fabric bled badly in this line. I did use colour catchers (3 sheets I believe) which wasn't enough. After my disaster by friend used the whole box of colour catchers with good success. I was able to get most of the pink colour out of the white using Oxiclean but unfortunately I think the red faded a bit.

A mini using Snowmen and snow flake buttons. A kit I bought at Folktales Quilt Shop open house in Dec. If you are in the area this shop is full of many surprises.

Lula is looking annoyed at getting her picture taken. So that's it for 2015 in review. Many more pictures can be seen on Threadtales Instagram site. Or the blue button at the top left corner of this blog.

Happy New Year and I'll see you in 2016.
