I did it! I completed another quilt top. This one is a Christmas Advent wall hanging. I totally love this idea. I got the inspiration and direction from Missouri Star Quilt Company at https://youtu.be/15Cblb8J6i0.
Here is mine:
I really like this idea. This is made with one-seam flying geese and the upper edges of the triangles are open for suggestions for activities. Missouri Star included a .pdf file for an Advent calendar. The next picture shows a few of the cards sticking out of the pockets:
I've thought about doing something like this with inexpensive date ideas for newlyweds, activities for what to do when bored, and so on. I really like the idea of doing a spring-themed one with activities. When I was homeschooling, I could have put assignments in each pocket and had a strip for each child.
It is nice to finish something!
Okay, so I still have to get the batting, then put the back on, but this is further than I thought I'd get at noon today. Oops, that would be yesterday as of a half hour ago!
