Category: Finish It
Borders are boring, borders are boring, borders are boring. Ok, I got that out of my system. As you can see in the photo above, I did get the 5th border on the Border of the Month Quilt sew-along that Corey Yoder is hosting. If I hate borders so much, you may ask, Why did […]
Finally, a new project up on the design wall. This one is called Christmas at Granny’s, a sew-along that Heather Briggs of My Sew Quilty Life hosted a year or so ago. I set it aside for some reason and have just now brought it out again. The quilt has nine blocks total, and as […]
Don’t you just love a long weekend for getting things done? I focused on getting several projects either caught up or completely done and I am happy to say I did all right. This is Halloween Figs, and it now has all its borders and is ready to be sent out for quilting. I also […]
I had a list going of various UFOs I wanted to revisit and finish up. Halloween Figs had all the blocks finished and sewn together, but then I put the project away because all those borders seemed like a lot. Well, I bit the bullet and dived in and started putting on all those borders. […]
Well, I don’t have ten things to show you today, but I did finish my Bliss Quilt top! That pieced border took longer than I thought, plus I had to piece a backing for the top. I have decided to use up the fabric I have sitting around, which is a lot, and found a […]
In other news, I just got this quilt back from my quilter! It is Sewcialites 2, a sew-along sponsored by Fat Quarter Shop a couple of years ago. It was fun to make, with various designers contributing quilt block patterns each week. I loved everything about the sew-along, except for the setting. So I came […]
Another one bites the dustAnother one bites the dustAnd another one gone, and another one goneAnother one bites the dust One of my favorite old songs by Queen is on my lips today. Can you guess why? Because I finished my Applesauce quilt! Cute as it is, I can’t say I am a fan of […]
I had a serious talk with myself this past weekend. I am feeling somewhat overwhelmed by the number of projects I have going on, the number of unfinished projects that I have set aside, and the number of quilts piling up that need to be quilted. I feel that I am being irresponsible by starting […]
I put the pedal to the metal and got busy with my Bliss project. I want to finish this up and get on to another project. I am having fun making Swoon blocks, and plan to focus on that next. Bliss has turned out very nicely, I think. I love the red center blocks and […]
I’m pretty happy with how this quilt top turned out. I got the borders on yesterday and now it’s ready to be quilted. It is a very good feeling to finish up so many projects lately. While I was working on them, I know I enjoyed myself, and as always, had fun picking out the […]
