I Love America

I fell in love with this pattern when I first saw in at http://www.mccallsquilting.com/content_downloads/i_love_america_pp101_patternpdf.pdf

So, what is next? Applique. I Love America, from McCall’s Quilting caught my eye and away I went.[img src=http://hobbystash.com/wp-content/flagallery/i-love-america/thumbs/thumbs_img_0539.jpg]I Love America – Completed Mar 2006
And yes, I made every mistake you can make in that arena as well.[img src=http://hobbystash.com/wp-content/flagallery/i-love-america/thumbs/thumbs_img_0540.jpg]I Love America – Completed Mar 2006
An interesting choice of colors to be sure [img src=http://hobbystash.com/wp-content/flagallery/i-love-america/thumbs/thumbs_img_0543.jpg]I Love America – Completed Mar 2006
Some of my quilting detail…I traced heart patterns onto the fabric [img src=http://hobbystash.com/wp-content/flagallery/i-love-america/thumbs/thumbs_img_0544.jpg]I Love America – Completed Mar 2006
Lots of stipple quilting on this one…helped the hearts pop out

As soon as I saw this pattern at McCall’s Quilting I knew I had to give it try. It’s quite a leap to go from strip quilting to appliqué. I also decided to try stippling and quilting stencils. Oh boy…
