It's a Sunny Day!

Yay! Sunshine! Well, since it rained all day yesterday I was able to stay inside and sew rather than work outside in the yard.  I thought I better post pictures of my recently completed project before July is over.  I started this last year and finished right before the 4th. It didn't take me that long I just had it in my UFO pile and pulled it out in June to finish it.  This is a pattern that Debbie Powell gave us at Miss Lou's.  This was my first try at paper piecing.  Not too bad :)

 
This is the paper pieced block with cute bird houses!
 
 
 
This is the applique block, I played with decorative stitches here.
 
 
This is the last block with strip piecing and applique.
 

Oops I just noticed I forgot to do the satin stitch around the stars. Won't take too long I may do that today.
 

Here it is today hanging on our wall. 
 
I am going to start taking pictures of my progress during future projects.  It would have been nice to see my mistakes so I could laugh at myself.  At the time it is not so funny, I hate ripping out seams.  Looking back at things though when you finally complete something you get a great feeling of accomplishment.  Thank you seam ripper :)  Have a Kwilt Krazy Day!
