This panel is larger than my normal ones I have worked with. And it was so much fun figuring out a little different look with the borders. Isn't he cute with his feathered friends keeping him company.
I mentioned this being a larger panel, the finished wall hanging measures 47.5"x 55" so it could essentially be a small lap quilt. I managed to get photos of it on Friday, got it listed and it was sold in fifteen minutes!!!!! My New York customer says she is going to use it as a bed topper. She will have a festive looking bed! I quickly ordered more of the black fabric as I do have another of this panel.
I'll soon have another one to show you, check back on Wednesday!
And now for the Fall Finish... and it's all for me!! This was stitched either last fall or 2 falls ago. And there it sat for inspiration to hit for the finish. Over the weekend I took a few minutes to layer it with a backing, stitch around it, turn it inside out and stuff it. I bought 5/8 of a yard of gold cord at JoAnns and hot glued it around the edge. Hot glue might not have been the ideal way to attach it, but hey it worked and I have a finished project! But the cord really made the difference I think.

What a great idea to use this fun panel as a bed topper. It will sure brighten up her room. Your Gobble Gobble is so pretty with the cording and bow. Great finish!
ReplyDeletethe snowman looks really great! and seeing your pillow reminds me that I have a couple to put together
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome border idea! I can understand why this one sold so quickly.
ReplyDeleteLet's hear it for glue guns! I finally broke down and bought a new one as I couldn't get the right size sticks for the ones I had. I've got a project I'm supposedly working on that I'll need it but, eh, who knows if it will ever get done! Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteYour panel wall hangings are always so beautiful Vicki and you always seem to pick the perfect quilting. The pillow is adorable!
ReplyDeleteGreat pillow!
ReplyDeleteI love your snowman, Vicki! The friendship stars make a great border, and that beautiful black print with the snowflakes and green branches, too. 💚 I started the Gobble Gobble turkey last night! I need to try adding cord like that to my little pillows. Great idea to use the hot glue!
ReplyDeleteThose stars are an inspired addition to that border. Just perfect. Also such a cute little cross stitch just in time for your Thanksgiving table.
ReplyDeleteI'm not surprised that panel blew out of your shop! How cute! I love your little project, just for you (good for. you!) - it's perfect for your fall decor!
ReplyDeleteHi Vicki! Oh, I love this wall hanging and especially your custom quilting. The addition of the friendship stars is a great choice in my book . . . and having it sell within 15 minutes! That just confirms your decisions. Nice job. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne
