Baby Quilt

I bought this baby quilt as a kit at the Maine Quilt Show in July. A great little gift for a baby girl. I was able to match the pink for the back. (This is a close up. Below is 29" x 35". Perfect for a carriage or bassinet. I had fun doing it.

Sashiko - Flag Runner

At the Maine quilt show I saw patterns called Sashiko by Pat. Of course they were displayed with beautiful Japanese fabrics. I purchased this one Chrysanthemum part of the Circle Series. It is just a basic running stitch. A no-brainer...I really enjoyed the process and then I added the stitches 1/4" from edge and framed it with some material from my stash.

This is a a Flag Table Runner. A friend did it and I just liked the look of it and had the material in my stash. I did everything on the machine except for the buttons. I took 2 buttons ...a beige and a star red button and put them together.

This was a challenge for me...I am a quilter at heart and usually find projects like this challenging. But, nevertheless I finished it and I like it hanging better than as a table runner...Farmyard Creations...Karla Eisenach 2001
