Finishing the Christmas Wall Hanging

Tonight, I decided to finish the Christmas wall hanging.  I like this concept:  buy the panels, sew the top, quilt it, and get a wall hanging up on the wall in time for the holiday...and all in the same year.


The wall hanging actually went together fairly well.  It took me about an hour to machine quilt it.  I am getting a lot more comfortable with machine quilting. 

Up next:  finishing a baby quilt for a friend or quilting the penguin quilt.  The baby quilt actually has a deadline, but I don't yet have the backing fabric for it.  So, it may be the penguin quilt....
