Friday Favorite - Blogger's Quilt Festival!

Amy at Amy's Creative Side has put together another fabulous online festival of quilts. Here's my entry:

I made this carpenter star to quilt along with Judy Laquidara's tutorial on how to free motion feathers.  It was a great tutorial.  You can go here to see it.  And here is the back (actually a pale yellow) :

Finished quilt measures : 38" x 38"
Pieced & Quilted by : Angie Nudge
Best Category : Wall Hanging

I made mine to be a wall hanging.  It was a fun project and all the materials were in my stash. Back in January I decided I would learn to do free motion quilting.  It has been a long process, but I feel I'm making some progress with SewCalGal's 2012 FMQ Challenge and Leah's Free Motion Project.  And then Judy posted her tutorial - Thanks, Judy!  Do click on the button above to visit the Festival.  Enjoy!
PS:  The winner of last week's Applique Thursday Book Giveaway is Sandra. Congratulations, Sanda!  Thanks to all who participated in  Applique Thursday.



Applique Thursday 10/25/12

It's that day of the week and here's as far as I got with Anna's Garden block #5. 

First set of company comes next Tuesday, so I won't be posting much for a while and the giveaways will take a hiatus, too.  I'll try to pick and announce last week's winner tomorrow if I can - a very busy day.

What have you been working on?  Remember even a few minutes a day keeps you moving forward. Link up and show us your eye candy!
