When Jeanene submitted this project, we were blown away! Look at all the detailed hand embroidery, look at the intricate quilting! What an amazing quilt and fun story to go along. Make sure to go say hi to Jeanene at the queen bees hive!
Finally, here’s my latest project:
my “Over the River and Through the
Woods” Quilt
(The pattern is by: Crabapple Hill)
This was actually my summer project. I fell in love
with it last spring when I saw it hanging in a shop in Logan. Loved it
immediately, but looked at all that detail and embroidery and decided ‘no’.
Then I saw it again, in one of my favorite little
shops near home, and knew I had to get it!
You remember the song don’t you? “Over the
river and through the woods to Grandmother’s house we go, the horse knows the
way to carry the sleigh….(finish it up);)
We had a few road trips last summer, and I
stitched all the way, over the hi-ways, and through the bi-ways!
I usually machine quilt them myself, but this was was
extra special, so after I got it pieced together I had Kaylene at ‘My
Little Quilting Shoppe’ do it. Look at that detail work!
Then I had to bribe my little nephew to come and hang
it over the stairs for me.
Her new home!
She likes it there!

What a treasure! Excellent job on the piecing and embroidery, and the quilting suits the theme perfectly. If it were hanging over my mantle, I'd have to stop a few times a day to admire its beauty.
Just lovely!

Beautiful, stunning job, really looks great where you hung it!
