The People's Choice - Sewing
Every month, on the first Saturday, Jo at Serendipidous Stitching hosts a Stitch A Long, with the topics chosen by her readers. This month's topic is Sewing.
I sew as well as stitch, sometimes both in the same project, so I have tried to post the sewing only projects. The title links will take you to the original post about the finish, with more pictures.
The Hexagon Tree Quilt
The Button Bag has some cross stitch, but mostly sewing.
The Matching Set (drawstring bag, tissue box cover, and chopstitck carriers) use the same yukata fabric as the button bag above.

Friday Finish - Hexagon Christmas Tree Quilt
It looks better in person than in these photos. Really.
It measures 43 inches by 46 inches and I hand quilted it with #8 perle cotton. Here are a few close ups of the quilt lines. I used my scrapbooking rulers and the disappearing pen.
This is what the back looks like. The horizontal pink at the top is the sleeve.
I'm pretty happy with it. I like that it's so colorful and fun.
