For my birthday this year I ended up getting my own darning foot for my sewing machine. It has been so much fun practicing with it and making quilting designs!
This is my first quilt I used it on. I ended up taking out the stitches after the first go-around on the machine. It was awful. The second time though I got it to work so much better.
If you look close enough at some spots you can still see some of my beginner mistakes! So of course I'm not going to show you the close ups of those areas :)
I will be giving this one away to a friend up here who is expecting her first little girl. They have three older boys already so I thought this rose patterned fabric would be a great addition to their home. Of course I had to add the ruffles to it as well - those boys need to get used to some frill in their life :)
If you're looking for some help on how to make ruffles I'd highly recommend using this tutorial. It's the one that I liked referencing the most when I was making my ruffle binding.
More projects to come! I can't wait to use my darning foot again.
