Peace on Earth

 I made 2 Peace on Earth tops, similar but each very scrappy.  This first one is now complete with free motion quilting and a sleeve on back for hanging.  It finished at 30 x 37.  I used 2 glide threads on the top, a medium gray and a navy in the black fabric so I could see where I stitched.  I used a forest green in the bobbin to match the fabric on back.

Peace on Earth

 I have been working on christmas items these past few weeks.  I fell in love with an item in the Connecting Threads catalog.  It burned in my mind until I had to make one.  What was I thinking...lots of piecing and lots of applique.  I also work under the theory that if you're gonna make one,  it's just as quick to make two at the same time.  I have the top to the first one ready to sandwich and quilt and the second top is waiting for the trees.  It is fusible applique. I think I will quilt with silver thread which will sparkle in the black background.  I will stitch it down & quilt at the same time.  My letters are a tad too big but I love it anyway.  Of course, one is for me and I will gift one.

Christmas Candle Mat

 I got out the christmas fabrics... progress seems very slow.  Today I have this small octagon candle mat to share.  It finished at 18 inches.  I created it from a photo on the internet.  If I made another one, it will definitely be larger at 24 inches.  It was a bit of a challenge trying to get the striped portion to be the same width as the larger corner triangle sections.
