Each quilt square represents a story about one of the Women in the Bible. This was great fun to make and many types of quilting - applique, piecing, etc..

Planetary Sewing Party

meet Yardos, their spaceship, Nedol, Roolar, Kwiltor, Klawth, Noshunz, Ilastik, Bobenz and Soe.

Started out following directions & using fusibles for the pieces. That stopped after the first dude. Switched to interfacing for the rest of the quilt. First one was also totally hand sewn (machine just would not deal with the fusible). All the rest I was able to machine appliqued down, which allowed me to use some different stitches besides button-hole.

felted wool to make the animals; started out machine appliqueing them, but finished them (most all of them) by hand. didn't see the mistake in the pattern till it was all together & quilted.
