Last year when I had a back injury, Kelly from I Have A Notion sent me a very cute Landscape pattern with some coordinating fabric. As I could not do much quilting, it was a good project for me to work on as I felt up to it.
Fast forward to last week when my BFF was visiting. I showed her the top that I made. She challenged me to finish the little quilt. So I dug out the threads
and started machine quilting the details of the Landscape.
I now have a completed Fall landscape quilt hanging on the wall.
I would love to make one for Spring and Summer to change out with the seasons.

Beautiful. I purchased a landscape book recently since this method seems very appealing to me.
What a beauty Jocelyn. At first I thought the spools of thread were part of the design & said 'that is so cool'. Chuckle. Better eyesight soon I hope. Hope you & BFF had a grand time.
Pop over & tell your friends about our 'quilting' giveaway that ends tomorrow.
Have a beautiful weekend, my friend ~
TTFN ~

Your little Fall landscape quilt is so sweet, Jocelyn. I love the little church in the valley!
XOXO,

Very nice. :o)
Gorgeous!
Very cool! I would like to try something like that one day.
Beautiful little quilt!!
Just beautiful! I have never tried a landscape quilt - maybe a small one is the ticket to get started...
How sweet this is ... and I love the little hanger, too!! :)
Cute! and I really love the hanger, too.
Love that this has played a part in helping you recover! God bless you.
How pretty! I purchased a landscape pattern of Mt. Rainier when we were in Seattle, and I had just barely started quilting. I didn't have the skills for it then, but wasn't sure I'd ever get back to the area. Maybe it's time to pull it out and get started!
Those curves are great! Great job :)
Lovely! It's a beautiful scene. It looks wonderful displayed with you hanger there. Enjoy!
Thats great!
That is beautiful! And I love the little quilt hanger, too. Congrats on a great finish!
Very nice! Good for you for finishing it - a challenge is a good thing!
That's beautiful! You sure do great work!
That is amazing!
You did a beautiful job.......I have a kit with a Tuscany countryside. I have not attempted it yet.
One of the ladies in our group read about a pass around quilt challenge.... that is like the game telephone.... Each person does a minature quilt and then passes it to the next person....then that person does something similar to the one that was passed to them. Such as if one did a quilt with shoes on it the next person maybe could do one with purses and it keeps going around. I am waiting to see if our group is going to do it and then I'm going to do the Tuscan countryside
Oh, that's absolutely gorgeous! I love it.
Very cute!
Pretty -- It's nice to have a project finished, isn't it.
Oh that is soooo sweet!
That is so darling, good job - and good job BFF, for making you finish, lol!
That is great. You're right, it would look wonderful in different colours for each season.
Beautiful! I have always wanted to do a landscape but never thought of one that small. Now, where on earth do you get a kit like that?
Wow that is so pretty!
Love your landscape, and great hanger! Have you started work on the winter version?
Nicely done. The landscape looks great on it's star hanger too.
It's Lovely!!!
what a beautiful finish! you did a great job! love your idea to change it out with the seasons, too. i always have good intentions of doing that, but rarely follow through! i hope you do! :)
thanks for linking up to finish it up Friday!
The colors are very flowing and I love the scene depicted:)
Your fall wall hanging is beautiful. And I'll bet it's nice to have it finished and on display.
This is gorgeous. I've never tried a landscape quilt, and this has me wanting to jump in. Fabulous!
This landscape mini is just gorgeous!! It seriously looks like a photo.
Thanks for coming to Sew & Tell!!
That is 'sew' beautiful. Very inspring, and a lovely job.
