Happy Birthday Pat

In the Sunshine (from the Splendid Sampler series)

I’m happy with this card except for one of my choices of fabric for the 9-patch that is hidden beneath the appliqué. That little bit of yellow should have been a better contrast for what is supposed to be the “flag” in the centre.

The sunshine and moon fabric is one of the first fabrics I bought when I started quilting. I have no idea where I bought it, but I’ve used it on several items that I’ve sent to Diane.

I wanted to do some quick quilting on this so rather than change to my walking foot I simply did a bit of a free-hand curved line.
