Are you ready to start another new day with a new pattern? I hope so – life is great and affords us many opportunities to start fresh and new – and today is a great day to start making a new quilt: Ruffled Roses. Each month, you will find the pattern for part of this quilt online. Just print the instructions, cut, stitch, press… and before you know it, time will have passed, and you will be ready to enjoy your own Ruffled Roses quilt. What a wonderful way to start each month!
I did the pine needles and branches with just thread. I put the swagged branch on with a stretch stitch on my machine using two different threads going thru the needle at once. Then I did the stems off the branches with the same two threads and a regular straight stitch on the machine. The needles were done free hand on the machine with a green varigated thread.
Absolutely fabulous! All that free hand work makes it ever so special!!

Ritzy, how did you do the pine needles? Are they hand appliqued/embroidered. I can't get a good enough close up to tell. They are just so soft looking.
