    I finally finished it! Well almost! I finished the binding last night but want to quilt something in the borders. Maybe a couple of Christmas trees or tree ornaments in the left & right hand borders! But it's done!!!! And done for THIS Christmas!!!! i'm so happy.

    This is a wall hanging done by using Anita Goodesign's design, all machine embroideried. I have about 5 more of her designs to do & now I can't wait to start on them!

    I'm sorry, I should have given more detail on this one but I was just so excited I finally finished it! This isn't a panel. It is all machine embroidery. Each sqaure was machine embroideried then sewn together just like a quilt. Then you put the window pane on to make it look like you are looking out a window & then add the borders. The borders dealt me the biggest fit since it was done with metallic threads. But after 3 attempts I finally got it good enough to use. Then I got the idea to use red & white striped fabric for the binding like 'candy canes"

    I had to go back an re read your post!! Guess I thought it was the panel as I have one, that after looking close, is almost like this. Really do need to do something with that panel. You have put a lot of work into this, but it is soooo worth it. BEAUTIFUL!!
