In the hustle and bustle of Christmas sewing and activities, I ignored a very pretty WIP on my design wall. After finishing the last UFO of the year, I felt a strong desire to just play for awhile, so I pulled out the tub of Roman Holiday remnants and made the center portion of a mini-quilt using HSTs. Fun!
Then I put it on the design wall, played around a bit with potential borders, but really just left it alone for about 3 weeks. My focus turned to other projects and necessary things - Christmas prepping!!
I came to my senses yesterday, pieced those reds together and attached the border. Easy as can be and
OH. I. LOVE. IT!! Won't this be a pretty table topper for decorating
next Christmas??
My tub of RH remnants should look emptier, but I still have quite a bit to work with. Can't wait to see what I come up with next!
I will link up today with
Silly Mama Quilts for her WIP linky party.
Happy Quilting, Friends!
oh I love it!!

ReplyDeleteVery pretty. Now you are ready for next Christmas but if you are like me, you will have to really think awhile where you stored it!
ReplyDeleteAdorable! I must think on using up some scraps in this manner.
ReplyDeleteSo very nice. Especially like the pieced borders.
