My Day At The Dust Off A Quilt Book Blog Hop

Bea had a great idea for a blog hop...dust of a quilt book we've had for a while and make
something from the book. The hardest part of this was deciding which project to make from
the gazillion books I have stashed here or there. Since I enjoy designing and sewing applique,
the book I dusted off for a project was "Adorable Animal Applique" by Margie Ullery.

I got the book during a class I took at a Bernina store that was being taught by the cutest lady,
Margie Ullery from Ribbon Candy Quilt Company. She's funny and very gifted
in creating applique designs. There's lots of cuteness in this book!

This was the quilt I made at the Bernina class from her pattern, Hoots Hollow.

Look who else is blog hopping with me today:

My Day To Share In The Show Your Wings Blog Hop And Giveaway

It's been an incredible week full of wings, wings, and more wings...I loved it!

I nested in my chair every morning with a cup of tea (but no bird seed) just to take my time

enjoying each and every project. Thank you to all who participated and visited!

I went a little steampunkish with my wing project and had so much fun with it.

The quilting was done by Quilted Works...they did such a great job!

I can't wait to make another steampunk project. It really was enjoyable to make!
