Not bad if I do say so myself. I know there's room for improvement but I'm always happy when I finish a project. I'm good at starting, not so much at finishing (or so my hubby tells me).
There was an ongoing joke between my sister-in-law and brother-in-law regarding her "cow eyes" (which he loves) and it carried on...so I told her I was going to make her a cow blanket...she said go ahead...so here it is!
I love quilting. Well, I love sewing. I absolutely love sewing together the quilt tops. Adding the backing and quilting it, not so much. I have a really hard time with the bulk of the quilt, and I almost always, no correct that, I ALWAYS end up with material puckers, even though I use a quilting foot and I pin the crap out of it!! It must be something I'm doing and I think that through practice and maybe some tips I may pick up along the way I'll get better. It's a passion I never would have thought I would have, but here I am.
I'm moving on to making a christmas table runner. I'm so excited. I wanted to make one for Halloween as well, but the baby came early and I've been a little busy. SO! I am making a runner using a "Merry & Bright" charm pack by Moda. The pattern is called "Charmed I'm sure" and I think it's going to be so cute!
I'll keep you updated :)

What a beautiful quilt!! I've tried quilting, I'm good at starting but not finishing. LOL I have a quilt top that I've made where each square looks like a different type of quilt, each square was made by cross stitching. I really like the way it turned out, but that is as far as it has got, I've not actually quilted it. :( I would like to see it finished someday, maybe I'll get around to it who knows. I may try and take a photo of it to show on my blog sometime in the near future. - Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog, that's how I found your's. :) Have a great week!!
