September Song






                                                           
                                      
This quilt was made from pre cut flannel squares bought at the PA National Quilt Extravaganza 2002 held in Ft Washington ,PA. It was put together on the day after purchasing the squares, on a dare from my friends to have it completed while they were at the show taking a class. I won the dare, but I had to work very hard and fast.

This 47 3/4" x 58 1/2" quilt is 100% flannel, machine pieced and quilted with variegated thread. I used my embroidery machine to quilt various leave shapes into the center of each square. Before I was able to do that, I had to scan the leaf shapes into my Artista Software where I digitized each leaf and then had to send it over to my machine for stitching.
