I have a UFO. This was actually the first quilt I put together last May when I started quilting again but it is yet unfinished. I know it is because I am hand quilting it and I am a little ADHD with that. I have not been working at it because I got a little bored with it. I also got onto a knitting kick and that took up my evening handwork time. And I got on the hexie wagon but then I picked it up the other day and thought, okay, this isn't too bad. I just have to do it! I really love this pattern. It is "French Roses" by Heather French and it is soft edge applique. Super easy to put together. I could have machine quilted it being careful not to quilt down the soft edges but I put this together before I was brave enough to try machine quilting. I used soft dusty romantic prints. I was going for that soft, romantic, aged look but my fabulous local quilt shop put it together with brights and it looked lovely too!
Totally scrappy. I can hardly wait to throw it in the wash to get all fuzzed and crinkled.
