My sister's quilt

Well I finally got this off to my sister and she should be getting in the mail today....Yippee!!

 I used black seed beads for my quilting.....when I quilted it on the machine it made me dizzy to look at it....so the beads were a great solution....It is a great feeling to have it all done and in her hands!!!!






Happy Dance!!!

ALYoF for August "Dandelion Girl" by Fig Tree

I had to switch to this Fig Tree lap quilt instead of the gigantic "Made in Cherry"....I need to be realistic on what I can get down this month.....and this one is so pretty!!!

ALYoF for August


My goal for August is to get this "Made in Cherry" quilt top quilted....maybe not the binding.....but the quilting on this big guy.  The fabrics are Moda's 3 Sister's "Park Ave." and Michael Miller for the backing.

What a lovely way to start August




Well here is my p.s. i quilt "Pinwheel Sampler" all hand quilted back from my sister Barbara.  I am so in love with this beauty.  When I pulled it out of the dryer the other night I was giddy with delight!  My 33 year old son called it an heirloom!!!!  Which tickled me so much.  I used Bari J's fabrics "Full Bloom".....which I just love....all of those flowers....and birdies too!!!  I started making this quilt top back in 2010.....it is so great to see it all done!!  I just love it!!!
