It feels nice to begin a new year with a new quilt, which will be a retirement gift for a friend.

| Here's the pattern image and if interested, you can find it here. |
 |
| While all the piecing is complete, there are still stars to applique, button eyes to sew, and embroidered faces to apply! What labor, but a labor of love! |
 |
| Since I prefer piecing to applique, I designed a new setting triangle. |
 |
| It also feels nice to finish up a second UFO, which just needed some binding! I joined the Crafty Quilter, to work on a UFO each month, but I guess if I finish more than one, that's good too! |

This patchwork quilt started when my niece, Briana stopped by with some fabric she'd just purchased. Together, we worked on her first quilt, but then it got put away for a few years and never completed. I'm excited for her to stop by and pick it up!
P.S. The new blog header was made using instructions from Blissfully Domestic, and Picasa. |
