May Schnibbles Done!

I really love this month’s Schnibble called “Gentle Art”.  I’ve always wanted to make a spool quilt,.. haven’t you?

I used charm squares from the “Summer House” collection!

I love the bright happy colors, which are exactly what I plan to use in my new sewing room!!

And of course, I had to change it up a bit… I added a striped middle piece on each spool to look like it was wrapped with thread.

I also left off three spools and added a pin cushion, scissors and a thimble, and some real buttons, pins and a needle.

I quilted by stitching  in the ditch around each block and each spool, then I added colored thread to appear as thread coming off each spool.

I named it “Loose Threads”. I plan on hanging it in my sewing room in the new house!  YAY!!
