This is what Froggy gave me when I visited her last week. It's machine and hand sewed as well as appliqued. It's a wall hanging, about 20" x 15". It has a polka dotted background, the edging is bright yellow with assorted colors on the front. The center attraction is an appliqued armadillo with a heart on his shell, a Texas flag and flowers including bluebonnets. The corners have a button, the bottom two are lavender butterflies and the top two are yellow stars.
Froggy obviously put a lot of work into this and I've very happy with it. Now, we just have to decide where to hang it. Bill wants it on one wall and I want it on another one! We both want it in the bedroom, it works really well in there with the quilts we already have and we both like it a lot.
Here's the full piece.
Armadillo! They are very special creatures to Texans. Yes, sometimes we do call them speedbumps! But this little guy is so cute.
Sorry about the string that shows! It is a stray thread that I didn't notice until just now. It's not attached, it just landed on the star.
The flag! And a close up bluebonnet.
