SHARING YOUR PROJECTS
< Mar'19
January 2019 | I am happy to display photos of your paper-pieced projects.
Christmas Cardinal "Barn Quilt" by Sherry Watson
I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your paper pieced quilt patterns! In the last year, I have started painting barn quilts and I have used the Christmas Cardinal pattern on a barn quilt for my private home. ...Painting a paper pieced pattern is much more labor intensive than a traditional quilt block pattern as there is more taping involved and it is harder to graph out the pattern. It is however, fun to do one occasionally for the challenge. I have done quite a bit of sewn paper pieced patterns, but the Christmas Cardinal is the first one I have attempted painting.

Pickles by Joan Teri N.
I finally made the pickles in a jar...I decided to make the square into a pot holder.
I preserved pickles this year (along with sliced pears, cinnamon applesauce, and blackberry jam).
Happy Holidays!

Purple Pickle Potholder by Linda Worland, Paper Panache
When I received Teri's pickle potholder (above), she inspired me to make one for my sister and brother-in-law, whose annual Christmas party we had just traveled to. They grew their own cucumbers and made their first batch of pickles this year, and served them at the party. Yum!​

Thank you for a fun mystery.

Chrismon by Joan Amundsen, Hatfield PA
​
Thought you might be interested in seeing the small banner I recently finished for my church. This was the Chrismon which I did in the 11 X 20 size. It was very well received and I was asked to do it in a 4 X 6 ft size, which is becoming quite a challenge.
​
I apologize to these three makers, who sent their photos in August/September, and I managed to over look them at that time:
Thank you for sharing these with us!

Woven Double Wedding Ring by Pat Campbell
​
I made it as a throw since the bride and groom were an older couple and really "didn't need anything". The lady I made it for to give as a gift said they liked greens so that is what I did.

O Holy Night by Lisa

Thanks so much for the pattern – thoroughly enjoyed making this for Christmas!
