    Talking Fall Wallhanging Q & S

    Some of you may recognize this as I showed you pictures when I pieced the top of this. I meant to finish it, but I didn't get a chance to before fall ended, so I put it away and forgot about it. Well I'm happy that I found it the other day just in time for me to finish it for this fall.

    So here it is all quilted and bound. This was my first time binding a quilt, and I have to say I didn't really enjoy it

    This is a very versatile design as you can use different colors for the "logs" and put a Christmas tree in the center, or a big heart for Valentine's Day, etc.

    The top and left side look a little funky because I used the same fabric for the binding that I did for the log. I suspected that it would end up blending...I should have listened to myself and picked a dfferent one. Oh well. Live and learn

    I am happy to finally be done with this one! Another UFO complete

    I Love it Michelle.
    That binding makes it special and a one of a kind.

    I like it, you really captured "fall" with your colors.

    I found this while searching for something else and thought I'd share with some of our newer members.

    I'll be sure to show anything else I find too, so be warned

    This is so pretty. I love the design and the rich color combination is awesome. The little orange pumpkin is my favorite part.

    I love it Chelle! Great job!

    I like that it appears the pumpkins are 'inset'. Does that make sense? LOL
