Why Not Sew?: A Finish

A Finish

I finished this little hanging over the weekend. I get to check one off of my list!!!

It's stretched and my stitches are imperfect and I'm sure it has some strange measurements but I love it so much!!!

I think I'll add one more line of stitcing around the border now that I see the picture. Another one for my quilt wall.
Hope you had a great weekend!

☆☆☆Edited to add that I entered this in Jennifer's Modern Mini Challenge at Ellison Lane Quilts.

Linking up with Canoe Ridge Creations for {Sew} Modern Monday!

and Sew Darn Crafty!

and on Tuesday linking up with Fabric Tuesday @ Quilt Story!
