I have been away for a bit, and I just got home. I won't tell you where I went, but here is a hint.....
The theme this month in Le Challenge is "precious". I have completed each month's challenge so far, but this time I really thought I might not make it. This theme was tough.
I searched my stash thinking about what is precious and ended up with "love". I used a scrap of heart fabric and some beads and created this Love mini measuring 10 x 10.
This is the first time I tried quilting loops and I had a tough time. The project kept slipping and getting away from me. I think I know what to ask Santa for Christmas - a pair of quilting gloves with some grippers.
I think it turned out kinda cute and I guess I got a head start a Valentine's project.
Please check out the other "precious" entries in this month Le Challenge. I hope you can join us with the next challenge. I think it's so interesting to see the variations on a theme.
This is very sweet! I am just learning FMQ but gloves do help!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a fun time! That is a sweet mini and cute idea to use those beads. Thanks for linking up to le challenge!
ReplyDeletevery nice, and i LOVE the love beads
ReplyDeleteI highly recommend "Machingers" gloves that are light weight and do the trick for fabric control.
ReplyDeleteMost precious, indeed!
ReplyDeleteI like the addition of beads. Plus pink always works for me :-)
ReplyDeleteI think your quilting is pretty good. Grippy gloves are an absolute essential in my book. They will stop your hands from hurting too :-)
ReplyDeleteprecious :-)
ReplyDeleteAn amazing trip! Great project, check you out being ahead of time for valentine's day when we are all struggling with Xmas presents! Thanks for sharing on le challenge, and I hope Santa is good to you this year!
