Signature Panel & Maiden

First things first. When I got an alert on my phone that the movie MAIDEN was showing an hour's drive away, I made plans to go see it with my Dad, who loves sailing. It was a terrific movie, and it's a hell of a story. (It got a 98% on Rotten Tomatoes). You ought to find, and see it if you can. Click the link for more information.

I am working on getting the backings ready for quilts to bring to Janet Lee next week, and I had to make the backing for the No Paper Pieced quilt.

As soon as I laid the fabric on the floor to figure out how I was going to sew it into a backing I realized this quilt (of ALL my quilts), needed a signature panel. So I got to work making letters.


My letters are free-pieced, meaning they aren't made with templates or patterns and they are most decidedly NOT PAPER PIECED!! If you would like to make your own, you can get the tutorial here, at my Etsy shop. It's an instant download so you can get started right away.
