I learned that using varigated thread can be tricky, my first attempt looked like I took colored pens and scribbled on it so I took those stitches out and tried again. Here's what I ended up doing. I did it all freehand. It was a fun project to work on. Thanks Deb!

Must admit that you gals that do free hand as beautiful as this makes me envious! I am practicing and hope I can do almost as good. Would make me happy if I could even do almost that good. Doubt it will happen though with the nerve damage in my fingers and hands, and then age. Keep up the wonderful work....if youneed something to quilt give me a PM.
