Finished Project Number 3 and 4

Project Number 3
A long time ago I thought about starting a long-arm machine quilting business, to cut a long story short it was put on the back burner while I had my children, but I did manage to do a wall hanging with the business name that I wanted but never finished it. I decided that the name 'The Quilting Place' was very relevant to the area I use to do my quilting so I decided to finish it off and I am going to hang it over the door frame in my quilting/scrap/computer/junk room just for fun.


Project Number 4
I have finally finished a wall hanging that I started many years ago called Farmyard Express. I have to admit that my craftsmanship on this project left a lot to be desired. I don't think I used an iron on it and I also don't think I actually measured my borders when I sewed them together. I had a bit of 'fixing' to do as I went along. Thankfully it turned out okay and you can only see my 'fixes' if you look closely (so don't look closely okay?).
Actually you don't need to look too closely to notice that the red strip on the bottom left hand side is a little cut off on one corner! Oh well, it is done, it is finished and it will go in my DS's room on the weekend when I put the hanging sleeve on the back and buy a dowel to put it on. I'm on a roll!
