Hidden Element

There is usally a hidden element in every quilt I make. Something out of the ordinary that is concealed either in the piecing or the quilting. Take for example this quilt, can you identify the hidden element. If you need a hint, check for fabric choices. This one really isn't that hard to find, at least to me. But look in the McDonalds quilt. Can you find that one?

So here is Ronald McDonald in the Case of the Stolen Hamburgers, at least I think that's what I called it. This quilt has gotten a lot of comments. Mary doesn't like it, but I like the striking contrast between the orange and purple. It will hypnotize any baby. And it was fun for me too, very nostalgic.

Receiving Blankets

This week I am making receiving blanks with two burp cloths. Maybe not too thrilling to read about, but Mary came over today and she brought a skirt, so we created a pattern and made a new one. Very interresting, there were seven bias cut panels and it turned out super cute. Although the fabric we used was a touch patriotic. It will be great in July, and the bonus is bias is always so slimming.
