Vintage Crosses

July 16, 2012 6 Comments

Hello Everyone While it is raining its heart out outside, I have been snuggled inside with the fire going. A great day to quilt. I have finally finished quilting my Vintage Crosses quilt and have sewn the binding on. Now I can sit by the fire and hand stitch it to the back of the quilt.

For my new Design I have been busy making perfect circles. I have had a production line going for these and love this photo of the finished product all in a row.

I have a Tutorial on making these perfect circles listed on the sidebar under the turorials heading. I love using this method, they turn out perfect everytime. Now I am going to settle in and stitch down my binding. Happy Stitching Sharon
