Viewer's Choice

This is I6-Viewer's Choice from my Dear Sammy Jane quilt. I love doing applique. Dislike the tiny little "melons" in the corners. They are so small, considering this little block is 4 inches square. Ick.

I whipped up a little crib quilt last weekend. Very shortly, I will be tossing it onto my new Next Generation Frame and quilting it with my new Pfaff Grand Quilter. I'm a little nervous about doing that. Putting the sewing machine on the frame means I am back to sewing on my old Bernina Nova, and I love sewing on the new Pfaff. It runs like a charm, purrs like a kitten. I've been a hand quilter, and this is a scary move.

I played some more on Picnik.com with this photo of one of our day lilies. Here are two variations I came up with. Which do you like best?

  1. Another beautiful DJ block! That photo program is really interesting. I like the second photo the best, but they are both great. The first has an impressionistic look. Thanks for sharing. I'll have to check this out.

  2. I like the bottom one from a photographic stand-point but the middle one has a nice contemporary, oil-painting feel to it. BTW...who's the Ol' F*** afloat with the cute baby??? Inquiring minds want to know.
