A couple of new pics
I posted two new finished (small) projects.
The March BOM is a cut down version of the clovers in Anita Shakelford's Folded Applique book. The binding is bad... I wrapped the back to the front and bound it. The corners didn't miter correctly so I just didn't miter them. :-) The pink YBR quilt is for my 2 year old. Her birthday is next month and she can start preschool at my workplace when she turns 3. She needs a nap quilt that can be kept there. I did a clamshell quilting pattern using freezer paper. I accordian folded the freezer paper in 3" segments and then cut a hump. I ironed it on the quilt and followed the edge. I then pulled it out, lined it up again and stitched the next part. It was kinda time consuming but turned out well. I only had to make 3 patterns. The freezer paper let me keep using the same piece up to 15 times. -- Gina in IL http://community.webshots.com/user/dgelias |

I would bet that no other child has a prettier nap blanket than your
daughter's..... -- Mary http://community.webshots.com/user/mardor1948 "Eli" wrote in message ... I posted two new finished (small) projects.

VERY nice Gina! Love them both. Great tip too on using freezer paper
for your clam shell template! I must try that sometime soon! Thanks for the hint!

Gina --
I love your BOMs, but just had to say that your daughter is going to have one of the cutest quilts at preschool. Love in Stitches, Coleen "Eli" wrote in message ... I posted two new finished (small) projects. |

Thanks, young kids are so easy to please. She immediately rubbed her face
against it and bragged to the others in the family about how this was HER quilt. :-) Gina in IL "Coleen" wrote in message ...
