    This is my first attempt at the Fun & Done method. I named it "Backyard Birds" and is my answer to our quilt guild president's challenge for this year. Her challenge was to make a quilt depicting movement. Not sure if this is what she meant or not -- but it works for me.

    The white background is actually a white on white with a pinwheel pattern.

    And those designs are so beautiful!! Only one design had a jump stitch -- I love that part! Only drawback I had was that my program would not let me alter the size. Sometimes I can and sometimes I can't.... :-)

    I think it depicts something that moves really well. I love the embrodered birds you did for your fun and done quilt.
