I am entering my first quilt into the ginormous quilting festival going on over at Amy's Creative Side.
I wouldn't have quilted it this month without the extra incentive of the festival, I was just to nervous, I mean it is my first quilt and I have a little machine.
I just quilted wavy lines across, it's what Tula Pink suggested anyway.

The anchor quilt goes really well with the pillow I finished this month for the Echinops and Aster Honeycomb Stitch Along.

I also made my pincushion swap partner 2 pincushions with scraps, even used scrap thread (I mean really who can throw away Aurifil thread).
The top one is filled with metal shavings and the bottom has a magnet underneath to pick up pins.
I also finished the bags for my mom to use for her husbands diabetic medicines, you can read more about that here.
I have a few more things that will be finished before the end of the month but this is what I can only show for now, if you come back on Tuesday May 28th I will have more.
And I am having a birthday giveaway starting June 5th so come back for that too!

ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your anchor quilt! The colors are so soothing, and even though it is monochromatic, there is plenty of contrast. Great job!!
