Awhile I go I pinned this Moda tutorial for a cathedral window play mat. My friend commented and asked if I'd make her one. I agreed and decided to make me one in the process.
She came over and helped cut out the circles and then again to turn them and place them in a eye appealing pattern.
The fabrics are a mixture of Ruby and Vintage Modern lines from Moda.
And here's what the back looks like. Go easy on me. I'm just learning this whole quilting thing. No cute babies here or even any to borrow at home to turn up the cuteness factor, guess these will have to do!
I started off using a regular quilter's foot on my new sewing machine until I remembered it came with a walking foot. It worked like a dream and made my job go so much smoother and easier. I am such a fan. Learning new things is the best, isn't it?
Happy Thanksgiving! Just waiting for the rolls to finish rising and then we're off to the in-laws for dinner. After that, it's to my parents house to plan out Black Friday. Woot, woot!
I really love this!!!
