Sweet Little Leftovers

Here is a little doll quilt that I recently made using leftovers in my sewing room.


 Here is a close up so you can see the quilting.


I was doodling some new ideas for machine quilting and came up with this:


I used a walking foot for the main lines of the fans.


Then I used my new weighted hoop for the free motion portions.  I really really like the hoop!


At first I forgot my teflon sliding sheet.  I have to say that the sheet is really needed.
 

Here is a link to Amazon where you can purchase the hoop and sliding sheet.

Here is a view of the backing.


I need help!  Over the weekend, I visited Susan in CT and we went to a local quilt show.  We both loved this folk art quilt by Harriet Powers.


There is a Pattern book for this quilt, but it is not available for purchase.  Does anyone have this booklet?  Would anyone be willing to lend it to me?  It looks like this:


I have my fingers double crossed!!  If you post this search request on your blog, I will send you a small thank you gift.
