The Wonky House is Done!

I just could not put this project down last weekend!  I tell you, this hobby is addictive, but in a good way!  I took my little quilt outside when the sun was lower in the sky on Monday night...perfect lighting to see all of my hand quilting.


I started the house block at a workshop in September 2013 with Becky Goldsmith at Piece O' Cake. She was the guest speaker at our meeting and then 20 of us attended an applique workshop with her the next day.  I finished the applique within a couple of weeks of the workshop but did not get back to working on it until about a month ago when I started adding embroidery and buttons and then hand quilted it. The finished size is about 15.5" square. I plan on adding a hanging sleeve and displaying it somewhere in my house.

I even had Becky sign the label for me...





 This was a fun little project! 


My next handwork project will be a wool applique block started at a workshop earlier this year taught by Jill Buckley aka, The Quilt Rat.  (more embroidery and some beads this time instead of buttons!)
