2011 calendars: patchwork

Two years ago, I fell in love with SeptemberHouse's calendar panels. So last year, I decided to order a few and customize them for the family members on my holiday list. Over the next few weeks, I'll be sharing the calendars that I made with you. 


For the first calendar, I made a mini quilt from scraps in my bin. I appliqued the patchwork piece to the calendar panel and then used navy embroidery floss to quilt it.


To finish it, I added ribbon loops to the top of the panel and then backed it with some Japanese fabric I was given a few years ago.


P.S. Thank you to Melissa for spotlighting "Welcome to Our Year" on her blog, Oh, My Darling!
