Finally Put Together

I finished sewing the top on my "Kaleidoscope Hexagon" quilt top .  


I then needed to do a little work on the backing as the quilt measures  approxiamately 40"  x  51" .  So I could not just do 56"-58" in one length. I had to split fabric backing to add some more width for the quilter.




I don't know if you can tell or not but the backing is a lite grey and white print. You might be able to see if you click on it and enlarge it.

 I also got back my "Amish Revolution" quilt and have it bound now. My problem now is I was going to use star on back as my label, but I like it so much I don't want to write on it. Now what do I do? I think it would be nice on both sides to display. I feel I should put a label on it .



It has circles in the quilting , hope you can tell!

Onward!

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.

Daughter Called

Image
My daughter called and asked if I would make her a couple of quilts! Of course I said yes, I love sharing my quilting with her. She  found a block she liked on pinterest in black,greys and white. I drew out my pattern on graph and began piecing until I got this.... and I found the most perfect soft snuggle backing.... So I now just have to take it to the quilter! I have also put up a small Christmas tree in the living room. I finished a small churn dash quilt of Fig Tree fabrics that I started at retreat in the beginning of November. I also finished my candle in the window log cabin quilt.... I started a few circle  blocks. I am going to use various blue backgrounds with my Kaffe and Tula scraps. All for now,chatter later, Martha.
