Here's my new tablecloth for a pub table using four blocks
from the Jacqueline Steves BOM.
I used applique from Lynette Anderson patterns.
I added some extra colors to the embroidery with Derwent watercolor pencils.

Thread sampler inspired by Lori Kennedy at the Inbox Jaunt.
It was a lot of fun and I learned a lot.
This was the first time I carefully tied off my beginning and ending threads.
I also tried out a few new FMQ motifs and templates.
Finally, I now have a record of how my threads look when used in machine quilting.

I love the back too.

New placemats for spring.

Fig Tree mini quilt in my favorite colors. Finished December 2014.
