This certainly was the smallest quilt I will ever do and only measures about 3" x 5", looks a funny shape but there's a reason........
3" x 5" Quilt |
First I embroidered all the features of each little square while they were still one big piece of felt.
Then I cut out each little individual coloured square and then stitched them onto the backing felt. It was a job but luckily they all went together snuggly.
Here's the finished quilt on Santa's lap.
All Snug on Santa's lap |
My stocking is almost finished, just the backing to go on and the name embroidered. I have another one waiting in the wings and hopefully I'll finish that before Christmas too.
Thanks to Cheryll at Gone Stitching for hosting another FNwF - good to see so many lovely projects.
