 Tulips for Oma Quilt..........took almost a year to complete.  I prepared the squares ahead and took them with me on my trips to Acme and Brooklyn to hand sew.  This turned out to be so large.  I struggled with the longarm quilting.  Some of the pieces were three pieces thick which caused the needle to break multiple times.  Also, I don't think I was tightening the needle enough.  I'm guessing actually.  I finally just stopped trying to quilt the thicker pieces.  I'm very happy with how the quilt turned out.  It was so fun doing English paper piecing for the sun petals.........and lots of applique!!!

Daughter Jessi made this felt embroidered wall hanging of my husband and me.  I think she made it when she was in college.  Just found it in...
