Federal Building Finished

The Federal Building is finished and my machine is in the shop. This quilt will be auctioned of as a fund raiser for the Danville Community Arts Center.  This is not a great picture of the finished quilt.  You cannot see all the quilted art designs in the sky.   The border was made of 5 different yarns braided and stitched on with mono filament thread.

I also finished quilting  my "celebrating home" blocks and mailed in photos for the 2009 calendar contest.

Federal Building Quilt

Yea! I have finally figured out how to make calligraphy letters with a zigzag stitch. Here is my very first attempt. I didn't think it was too bad, with a little practice I should get the hang of it.

The quilt of the Federal building is starting to come along. My dead line is closing soon. I am also working on some 12 inch blocks for the AQS calendar challenge.
