Christmas Through the Year - March Finish

I have finished Ellie's name panel!

Ellie quilted and bound

I ended up machine quilting cos the hand quilting spider's web with pearl cotton I tried went a bit pear shaped. I think the lines and spots on the fabric made me too cross eyed ;-)

I feel like I need a break from making name panels, so will be doing something different for April's present...watch this space...

    I love this. It gave me an idea as to what I could do for my granddaughter. Very cute!

    What a great panel. It looks great but I can imagine it would be a bit hard following it around on the machine.

    I did a pieced name pillow for my daughter years ago when she went away to college -- I wish I had thought to make it wonky like this, because yours is so much cuter.

    Great job!

    I agree with you about lines and spots when hand quilting. That's why solids are so great.
