This quilt was my first time with improve curves, as well as quilting on minky & I posted a bit about this quilt back in April. It just seemed a bit boring to me, so this week I appliqued the elephant with some velour from my stash.
I am likin' it much better! I did not use a batting, and the fleece gives it a great drape. I think this was the first time I did the machine binding.
AND,
Lucky me, I received a giveaway surprise package from Julie at 627handworks !!
YUM!! |
And I am loving the Aurifil sampler pack. Has anyone ever used the wool thread? It is the red one. I might have to try a wool project just so I can use it:-)
Yep, lucky me:-)
Linking up this week with Julie at Thursday Threads, Cherry Valley Designs for TGIFF, and Sarah for Can I get a Whoop Whoop? Sarah made the cutest Dresden plate Apron - check it out!
This is so cute. While minky can be a little tricky to quilt, it is worth it ... I like the curves!
