I've finished them at last. My first intend was to make one single wallhanging, but:
- I have two daughters,
- the backgrounds did not fit together.
So I've made two wall hangings. They will make two Xmas gifts, among others. The good thing is that they are small enough for my daughters to take them home, and to hang them in their small flats.
I've started packing my XMas gift this morning.This one will find a new home at my sister's
It is from a pattern by Beth Ferrier, from Applewood Farm publications. I made sure the cats were away while this quilt was been photographed. But Choupette must have a sixth sense. She appeared out of nowhere at that precise moment...
And this one will be for her daughter:
It was a model by Magic Patch, dedicated to FME beginners, and it was indeed my first try at FME.
The parcels are ready, but I hesitate to bring them to the post office. The mail was on strike one day this week, and the trains have been for about one week, and this strike is not over yet. So I'm afraid the mail cannot be forwarded properly. I'll have some postcards ready tonight too, but with the same question, shall I post them or wait? I'll listen to the news, and will see if I have mail today.

Your lucky girls. Gorgeous hangings and quilt.
I think you should post!. :)
Glorious work here, Vero!!! That quilt for your sister is a real stunner, too.
I would wait on the mails until the strikes calm down...definitely.
What lovely work you do! Your girls are very lucky to have such a creative Mum. It must be very satisfying to see the tangible creation of beauty. I, too, am owned by two felines.
It was a real pleasure stopping by your site.

Das sind wundervolle Geschenke, Deine Töchter und Deine Schwester werden sich sicherlich freuen. Der Wandbehang nach dem Applewood Farm Publications gefällt mir besonders gut, wie lange arbeitest Du an so etwas Diffizilem??
They are all gorgeous, but I especially like the green veggies, and the modern art one. The pattern and colors are just wonderful,

Vero, your quilts are stunning! I love your design sense and the colors you chose!
I love all the gifts you've shown us, but especially the vegetable wall hangings. They are stunning, mounted as you've done. It's all wonderful work.
