During the day, I've been busy working on an upcoming quilt collection for @jacquelynnesteves, during the evenings I've been stitching. I finished part 9, Baa Baa Black Sheep, of Farmhouse Christmas by @littlehouseneedleworks #crossstitch and I think I'll move to the center square next. I also pulled out 'Rainbow Row' and started working on that again. I started that one in 1987 or 1988, shortly after we moved from Charleston. It's been at least 4 years since I worked on it. I think it's time to finish it up! #xstitch #farmhousechristmasstitching #rainbowrowcrossstitchToday on the blog, my thoughts on keeping a Quilt Journal! 📒 https://thequiltingnook.wordpress.com #journaling #quiltjournal #bonnieandcamille #jennyofelefantzdesigns #scrappyprojectplanner #arcsystemHappy February! #monthlymarker #heartquilt #heartminiquilt #loveyoufabric #projectredfabric #showmethemodaWinterville is finished! I love this quilt! I had fun choosing the fabrics, piecing it together and quilting it. Thanks Camille, @thimbleblossoms, for a great pattern. I made a plan to sew a section each month starting last February and I finished the top in July. I started quilting it in mid December and finished it the 2nd week of January. (I had to wait for a sunny day to take pictures 🤣) .. Quilted on my #pfaff 4.0 QE domestic with #aurifilthread 50 wt with matching colors. For the ruler quilting, I used the #westaleerulerfoot and #westaleerulers and @angelafmq #squiggyruler by @creativegrids. Used @quiltersdream select batting. .. All the fabrics are from my stash except the background and backing. Fabrics include: Bkgd-#shadowplayfabric by @maywoodstudio Backing-#vintageholidayflannel #vintageholidayfabric #sugarplumchristmasfabric #juniperberryfabric #sweetwaterfabric #katespainfabric #sherriandchelsi #bunnyhilldesigns #showmethemoda #bonnieandcamille #basicgreyfabric #nancyhalvorsen @modafabrics @aurifilthread @pfaffsewing #winterville #wintervillequilt @bonniecottonway @bunnyhilldesigns @official_basicgrey @sweetwaterfabric @aquiltinglife @chelsistratton @nancy.halvorsen @benartex_fabricsFollow on Pinterest
