Two Finishes

I finally finished something this year.  Only took me almost 9 months to birth these babies.  I finished my two quilt challenges for Cherry Blossoms.  Our first challenge was the Quilt Diva by Amy Bradley.  I was not about to hand applique that huge piece, so I shrunk it down and did surface embroidery to complete it.

The next challenge was a house quilt.  I found a Christmas house from Home Sweet Home by Barb Adams and Alma Allen.  I completed the house in Russian punchneedle then added a strip border.  The only problem was I couldn't quilt in a hoop because of the punchneedle so there is more puckering than I'd like, but it came out decent.
