I can't claim this adorable little quilt as all my own. I only quilted it. My mother embroidered all the cute little Pooh characters.
Of course, I had to show some up close of her handy work.
Eeyore has always been my favorite of the Hundred Acre Wood.
This Eeyore with the net is my absolute favorite.
I quilted it surrounding each of the embroidered pieces with a honey pot shape. I used EQ7 and drew myself one up since I had no luck finding one on the Internet.
I also signed her name inside the quilting. She is planning to make one for each of her grandchildren to put in their hope chest. A family heirloom to treasure for years to come.
It took longer for me to find the perfect backing for this treasure than quilting it, but I thought the honeycombs fit with perfectly with Pooh. Oh, thank goodness for the local fabric shop. That's two projects done for the week. Both with a lot of yellow.
The lovely place I link to.......
