ALMOST FORGOT - NEW HOUSE


Here is a picture of my new house. I can't wait to move in. God certainly opened every door so we're ready to close Nov 16.

BORDER CLOSE UP


Here is the border close up. I have one I am binding during resting from my packing so I'll post it once it's ready

NEXT ONE FINALLY FINISHED


Well as you know I had 5 waiting to be quilted and 2 just waiting on binding. Here is one that needed quilting and binding. This is probably my favorite so far. I'm closing on my new house mid November and I've decided this will look great on my living room wall. I think these colors matched the border so well and it's surprising since they were bought at different times. The colors in the border are much richer than the camera shows. They look a little pale in picture. Luckily I quilt better than I take photos. Finished this last week but just hadn't had time to post.

ONE FINALLY FINISHED


As I might have mentioned (repeatedly), I try not to post my quilts till they are finished including the binding. Here is one I just finished for my great nephew. I bought him a Winnie the Pooh bed so he needed a Pooh quilt. The batting was puffier than I expected but it came out very nice.

Will have a few more soon but I'm buying a house so will be busy with that.

PRISM TOP FINISHED


I don't usually post my quilts till they are quilted and the binding done but here is the result of my Friday Night Sew in. I finished putting the top toether then Saturday morning I got and added the borders. Worked out great cause this was my sample quilt for the class I was teaching that day. I love the colors. Can't wait to quilt it.

FRIDAY NIGHT SEW IN - SQUARE THEM UP


All that is left is to square up my blocks and start putting them all together. I was thrilled there is plenty of leftovers to make into something else. I love these colors.

FRIDAY NIGHT - I'M SEWING NOW



My pieces are cut and blocks are going together. This is a really easy pattern once you get the cutting all done. I tried to arrange my colors so they blend from one row to the next but I think this would look good in any color.

FRIDAY NIGHT RESULTS



Took me a while to post these but I'm trying to find a house so been a little busy. Here are some of the pictures of my Friday night Sew In. First I got the sewing machine and fabrics ready to start cutting.
