My guild (Baltimore Modern Quilt Guild) participated in the One Little Word Challenge in January. The idea was to choose a word to inspire you for the year and make a quilt that you can look at and be inspired all year. The other members of my guild made quilts ranging in size from a mug rug to a twin size quilt. They were all great! Click the link above to see them!
I picked the word "Grow." I want to grow as a quilter and as a person this year. I tried to use some of my new skills in this little wall quilt. I made some wonky free pieced letters, some raw edge applique leaves, and quilted FMQ, echo quilting, a spiral, some straight quilting and some wavy line quilting. I used a variety of solids to bind it (just finished it!... I did everything except the binding back in January!)
Here it is hanging across from my sewing machine in my new little sewing room! (I stapled it up this morning! hehe).
