Friday finish


Week Three Journal Quilt, pant, pant.

The weather is bitter cold but that doesn't stop my company and I'm set for a full house all weekend. This was third on my cross off list of five things. Two to go!

Oh, the quiltlet is fused scraps. I made myself stay in the scrap bin. I found Misty Fuse in my sewing dealer's shop and I'm trying it. So far so good. I must remember that an overlay of tulle dulls the colour so I need to spice things up a bit or get over my obsession about raw edges. I did some machine quilting then applied the backing. I can see this is going to be a great learning experience as I do these weekly quilts.

I've had this post bookmarked in google reader for ages, so that I didn't forget to come and comment! I really love what you've done here. It's so pretty and all from scraps too. I'm looking forward to seeing your future minis!
