A Winter Finish.
Posted on | January 14, 2015 | 15 Comments
It’s the middle of Summer and I am finishing a Winter quilt.
This is a little lap size quilt using a free design from Erin Russek of One Piece At A Time.
I started it several years ago and then it was set aside as I found other distractions.
I appliqued each mitten with satin stitch using a variegated red and blue thread.
The quilting is a simple meandering pattern.
It is backed with a lovely snowflake fabric.
Good to have the first quilt finished off my list for 2015. Not a big one, but a finish all the same.
Now what’s next?
Cheers, Karen

Well, at least you are ready for next winter! Either that or send it to the Northern Hemisphere and it will fit right in.

I love the colors you choose. Perfect finish for upcoming winter! Nothing beats being ahead of the game! ;-)
Super cute Karen!! It reminds me of Anne’s new pattern with the applique skates!! Love her patterns and her fabrics…one of my all time favorite Moda designers. Enjoy your day!! Happy stitching, Pauline
Hello Karen,
A fantastic finish for the year, the little mittens are rather cute. Is this one going to family in the US?
Happy days.
