Late comer: Stephanie

Hello!  My name is Stephanie, and I am from Salt lake, Utah.  Apparently i am the youngest participant.  So... wohoo for me!  I have just recently started quilting seriously, and my Aunts Ann, Marie, and Dorine (the daughters of Dorinda) invited me to join in on the fun!  And, because I am out of school for a few days, I decided to hurry up and get my first block done before I had too many other things to do.  So here it is...

I am doing a forest theme, all out of scraps from my mom's fabric closet.  I know the trees are not very original, but I really did enjoy making them.  I made my flying geese, and then applique'd the background on to them.  I decided that would be my original bit for this block.  I tend to pull out odd things like that freqently.

Steph,
Welcome, and congrats on being so fast. Glad you have a few days off, so you can be a part of the beginnings.

Welcome! The start of your little forest is lovely! I like how the tree is almost leaning in the wind.

Marie said...

Wow, a block already! We are so happy to have you join us. It will be fun to see how you build your forest.

Great job. You'd be a natural for crazy quilting! I want to embellish all those seams! LOL

Welcome Stephanie. So glad you joined us! Love your whimsical little forest. I was very impressed with the star quilt you posted on Facebook. That's a lot of work for a high school girl! I'm impressed!
