Signature Quilt -Winter Snowman's Delight

This is a signature quilt that was done in Backroad quilters.
We chose our block and everyone who was in the swap made one for us in their choice of color. Each one is signed.
UFO-began in 2005-06 and finally finished 2016.
 and was in the Tacoma Quilt show held last month.
 This was a chapter challenge. We chose a season by lot from a brown bag. Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring.
Mine was winter 6" x 60" 
Our own design. It was fun to do.
These were in the Maine Quilt Show and 
also our Tacoma Quilt Show.
TITLED: "WINTER SNOWMAN'S DELIGHT"
Techniques - machine piecing...hand embroidery.....
machine embroidery stars by friend, Kathy
