FIRST FRIENDSHIP QUILT

I know I know its not quilted yet, so technically its not finished,  but I have finished constructing the top of the friendship churn dash quilt. 









I am calling the quilt
"MADE BY FRIENDS"

 I just wanted to show you how its all come together.  I hope to pin it together into a quilt sandwich over the coming week and then begin the quilting process.  I will quilt in the ditch and around each churn dash to make them pop.

   So a big Quilted Hugs thank you to:  Cathy, Maree, Teena, Sandi, Leena, Cheryll, Alex, Beth, Crafty Pugs, Maria,  Alicia,  Debbie and Rosemary for your blocks that have made this quilt possible. xxxx

I guess they've said it all - it IS fantastic and love the label too - it must have taken ages to embroider that.

I cheated and the embroidery was done on by my sewing machine.
