Candy Pop Quilt Complete

Here is the Candy Pop Quilt all done! It is machine quilted using my Singer 401A and a wide zig zag style stitch.  Took a bit of a short cut and folded the backing over as the binding as I just loved the fabric.  20180318_112312

And here it is hanging on the new to me quilt rack.

Needlepoint Pillows 2

Two more pillows were completed and delivered to my client.  One was a small print of random color splashes (sure, there is a word for it, but it eludes me at the moment).  The other was a hound dog / beagle that was challenging to to the nature of the needlepoint stitching not having a solid background.  For this one I ended up lining a cut of white cotton sheeting with fusible interfacing then doing a reverse applique to give both body and a regular rectangular shape.  From there I stitched random quilting lines to set off the border from the main picture.  It turned out fairly well I think.  My client certainly seemed happy with it.
