My face is not yet quilted and i haven't been able to get it to open in the topic, but have used it as my avatar. When my hearing started to deteriorate, my husband threatened to get me an ear trumpet! The names of people I want to communicate with can be made with the alphabet letters in the hearts - this is important to me. I added the house and may put an envelope on the back as I haven't had time to do the basket or holiday quilts, but enjoy Alex's Facebook meetings - thank you all at TQS.

I did some experimenting to capture my dog Penny who passed away this year at 20 human years. I fused an extra layer of batting behind the dog and two extra layers behind her nose to make her poofy. Her blanket is flannel, same as a quilt I made her. I’d normally not mix it with quilt cotton. I stitched Penny’s parts in straight stitch with sparkly gold rayon thread. I quilted some significant shapes into her blanket and quilted the background “radiating” with monofilament which also has a bit of sparkle. The dog tag was hers.

[quote="karonray" post=152004]I am still going to put pins and some other things on this quilt but the fabric part is done. I had fun and would not have done it with out Alex. The binding was done with two colors, 1 1/2" of blue and 1 3/4" of gold and made to be machine sewn down. Search for flange binding to get instructions.
Thank you Alex!
I love doing the faux flange binding on quilts. Great job on your Avatar, love your hair.

I have tweaked my Face. I changed the background fabric and hat. I have added the boots for my brother who left us in August. The hat represents my dad, the sewing machine is for my love of sewing. The flower pin was my mom's. The UP 844 badge is from my working days at the Calif. State Railroad Museum. The cat and dog are for my pets that I no longer have. The earrings are from my favorite baseball team. I plan to tweak some more after Christmas. Oh, yes, the flowered hair is for the red hair I had before turning gray! I have had a lot of fun doing this and thank Alex for spending her time to teach us something new.
