This is my life

Well, once I had my needle threaded with pearl cotton, I just couldn't resist running a couple of rows of embroidery across, above and below the lettering. I love to feather stitch and herringbone stitch. And then, that utility quilting that I talked about in previous posts, just worked out great here. I added a binding, and a hanging sleeve. I aways put a hanging sleeve on my hangings, but I don't use them. I hang them up on a pants hanger. That's life!

Looks great! Can you show a pic of your first life quilt? I'm just curious!

Roz, that is SO cool. I love it. I like the idea of the free-pieced points, so much more fun that ripping out foundation paper :-)
