What I Did for Love

Here is the quilted Wall Hanging I am entering for the Arts East Exhibit in February. The theme is "What I Did for Love". We get full price this time. It is paper pieced with vintage charms on it, a watch face, a love bug pin, one of those American flag pins from safety pins, a life Scout pin, a key pin and key hole. I stitched Chocolate, family and service in the white spaces.

I also am just about finished my BOM (block of the month) Fairy Tales, one block to go. I am a year behind... I used as many buttons as I could find instead of sewing as I really like buttons. I need a mushroom button for Red Riding Hood. Click on the block to make it bigger and see if you can guess the Fairy Tale that goes with the block. It is a fun game!

Rose Red and Snow White, Red Riding Hood, the Brave Little Taylor, Jorinda & Joringel, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Rapunzel, the Frog Prince & Cinderella. I also need a shoe button for her block on the stairs. I am working on Rumpelstiltskin and then it will be finished. ta dah!
