2016 DEAR DAUGHTER BOM

2016 has started off with a bang for me!  I have completed three projects already.

Another quilt I have finished is my Vintage Quilt Revival Sampler.  I still need to add the binding and the label.

Today I pulled fabrics to make RebeccaMae Designs Dear Daughter BOM 2016.

I have chosen some solids, stripes, and some bright prints.

It took me about an hour and a half to cut the components of the first 7 blocks.  Now I am ready to sew next week.  This will make the First Chapter.

I am looking forward to this adventure this year!!!!

UFO FINISHED

I always have more plans for Holiday gift giving than I ever get finished.  This year was no different.  I had planned to have these Wall Hangings done for Christmas 2015.  Did not happen.

They are now finished and I will pass them on to the lucky(?) recipient by Christmas 2016 so they may be used in the Holiday festivities.

I fell in love with this pattern when a friend of mine shared it with me.  I decided that it would be gorgeous done in Batiks.  Making three separate pieces seemed to be a better plan than making one large piece.  I thought this allowed the pieces to be displayed in more ways.

This is raw-edge applique with organic straight line quilting.  These are very contemporary pieces and I decided less was more.

           FAITH is actually done in purple, the color of power

HOPE is done in green, the color of abundance

LOVE is done in red, the color of strength

HOPE, LOVE, FAITH
