OK, I have been a procrastinator this last year. Trying to get my hands around all of the changes that have come my way, I think that I have started so many projects that are now setting here incomplete. I decided that it is time to start finishing up some of them. And I’m doing it before having to make a New Year’s resolution too! LOL!
I am still working on finishing just a couple of Christmas presents, but I threw in another project that I should have completed a long time ago……..
Wildlife Pillows
I started these wildlife pillows for one of my sons. They were actually panels that I backed and machine quilted.
Beginning Panels
I have had them in my fabric stash for a long time, I think that they may actually be considered vintage (lol!). So I cut off the border, selected two of them, and proceeded to quilt them. Since I had them so long I couldn’t match the fabric for the backing, and just plain brown didn’t seem right to me. I finally came across a brown print this last year, that had most of the colors I was looking for.
Backing with a piece of the border
I added a piece of the border that I had removed from the front, and just made an envelope back closing.
Since his living room is in browns, and he is an avid outdoorsman, I think that these will work great!
One project down, yay! I think I’m on a roll!
Done!
Thanks for stopping by!
