February Mini BOM -


Block of the Month - February ....
Country Junk'tion pattern by Amy Heaton. 8 x 22". I did needle turn applique and used heavy bonding for ribbon.

 A funny thing happened while I was beginning to top stitch. I had made myself a healthy drink ...chocolate based with bananas and blueberries and sat it next to me. Well, I hit that and it covered me and my hanging...broke the tall glass and covered the scatter rug and floor.....what a mess!  I washed the hanging and it came out beautiful......thankfully! I learned a valuable lesson....do not put your drink on a sewing machine...The thing is I never do...I usually place it behind me on a table....It sure was a mess. But I really like the way this turned out. The original was done in Pinks and Greens. BUT I am a black and white person so decided to do my own thing.
