Monthly Mini Quilt For January

1/31/2019

0 Comments

 
Hi everyone, I hope you are all staying warm while we are experiencing our January freeze. "Out like a Lion" "In like a Lamb", maybe there is hope for February?

I have been suffering today with a cold and decided to stay home and get my January mini quilt done-better late than never!  
The picture of it is below and it is a landscape quilt, kinda artsy and showing January, cold and frosty as it is right now.

Quilt simply called "January"
The process of making this quilt was really very simple and completely by machine.  I started with a simple line drawing shown below:

Fabric was then cut out based on the paper templates:

The fabric parts were all sewn together with a tiny zig zag and matching thread:

My quilt is now ready to be sandwiched with 2 layers of batting, to show texture on the quilt:

My feed dogs are lowered and a free motion foot is put on my machine and trees are free motion stitched:

More trees and snowflakes in the sky are added along with swirling winds and texture lines in the snow:

Satin stitching was added as the binding ( a first for me).
Stay warm and stay safe on those roads and challenge yourself to make a winter landscape!❤️
