This Wallflower Takes a Step Forward

I made the block of the month for February's quilt guild meeting. I believe my needle position was off and I was taking more than 1/4" seam allowance and my quilt block came out too small. So I had to make another one but then was left with "what do I do with this one?"

I decided on a small wall hanging. It gave me an opportunity to play with my embroidery machine and practice a little free motion quilting.

When I went to the meeting last Tuesday evening I actually got in line to stand in front of a room FULL of ladies to "show and tell" my latest "oopsy." I discovered that if I just talk into the mic and look at and point to my wall hanging and NEVER look into the crowd ... I'm fine! But then there was that long walk back to my seat. However, it wasn't so bad - I got lots of compliments on the way back to my chair :)
