My neighbor is having her second child and I have decided to make something very special for her new baby. It is a quilt featuring "Children of the Inner Light" embroideries. I just love these little people. They are right there on the top of my favorites list. Anyway, I love this mag called "Quilting and Embroidery" again at the top of my favorites list, unfortunately, it is very hard to find and I am not sure if it will even be in publication any more, what a shame. Anyway, there was a red and white quilt with some redwork designs on it and that is the quilt design I chose to try and do except that I am making it black and white and the different embroideries. These are photos of the quilt on the design wall. I got it all cut out and now I just have to sew it all together. I'll keep you updated as it comes along.
Oh, Yeah, I love my design wqll. Very simple, you just need a large wall to put it on. I used felt and tacked it in several places on the wall. The fabric sticks to it very well, but if you have a fan or something stirring the air, you might want to spray it with a light coat of quilting adhesive or applique adhesive. This has been great for me to arrange my pieces. I'm relatively new to this quilting thing, so I am still learning a lot of tips and tricks.
