Easter Is On Its Way







Here is a new wall hanging finished just in time for Easter. The is my number 10 UFO. This was not the one I was supposed to work on this month but I wanted to get it finished so that I could hang it this month. Parts of the applique are in fabric and in wool.  The rabbit is made from a chenille bedspread that was kindly donated from one of the girls in our applique group. This patten is from a Robyn Pandolph book.  I changed the two blocks on the right. They are both from different designers. It was a fun wall hanging to work on.

  8. I love the cone flowers in the bunny block. I need to pull mine out and finish it. It just lacks the binding!
