Linda's "Not so good" pictures

Thought I would share a couple of not so good pictures. These two are actually at the same place, I just wanted to show how much extra fabric there was.

Linda's Freehand

The picture Freehand Stuff is what I did in the sashing and borders

The other picture shows then entire quilt. In the blocks, I just did diagonal lines in the blocks

Technique 1 is just a straight line meander

Buttercups

Buttercups by Hermine Harken

Here is the small wall hanging that I just took off the machine. As I was working on it, it just seemed to "talk" to me. It was great fun! I thought I'd share it. Tim
