Finished the binding on mine yesterday. Ready to ship as soon as I get a name. No pictures posted. Haven't been able to get camera out to take pictures of my pretties. (some pictures on camera are of Mom when we viewed her before her cremation) Soon - maybe DH will help me separate them.

morning everyone! just popping in to say hello! I was at a fabric shop the other day Bearly Quilting in Sonora and they had this wall hanging kit. Actually a group of them.. but this caught my eye. It was the side profile of a bunny. fusible applique. like a standing chocolate bunny side profile. He had a egg in his hand. That was it some pretty striped pastel going all around it and I was so close to buying it but thought oh heck you can make it simple enough bunny. patterns like free on the net. But I have to say it was so cute. would be a grand wall hanging for easter and might be next on the wall hanging list for me. I couldnt justify 22.00 for a 12 W x 18 long piece of fabric lol. I think I also need to make a cactus wall hanging. the idea just came to me and its perfect for a western or cinco de mayo wall hanging. with some chili peppers and maybe a pot at the base like those old fifties tablecloths have.. yup that would be cool. and I havent even had my coffee yet its still brewing!

Elisabrat I am sure yours is beautiful. Mine is just a teaser, because it is not the one I am sending. Some of those fabrics are in the one I am sending, but there are some others too, but similar. I have been using that one along with the other one to practice, but not sure it will be any better. oh well. I am still learning. lol....The other teaser I seen is very pretty, and I am also looking forward to seeing all of the wall hangings that will be shown. Have fun everyone. Happy sewing!!!

Ok....have taken a picture....am hoping who ever gets it likes it......as I made it mainly in February....I thought of spring and hearts.......the old romantic that I am !!
I have had such fun making it, lots of wonky seams but I'm hoping it's not going to the quilt inspector........I have called it at the heart of the matter......and I am hoping who ever gets it sees why !!
Sadly will count myself out of the 3rd swop as my first grandchild is due in May and my daughter wants patchwork quilts.....It will all be very neutral and as soon as it is born I will adding loads of blue or pink accessories....so a busy few months ahead. I'll try and do the 5th one.
Thanks Rhonda for organising.....Off to start my label now.

Still working on mine. Have more quilting to do then the binding. I am hand quilting it and I judged the timing off. We have two late nights to work this week on top of it. I should be in the mail by the weekend.
