OZ

Last time I showed a couple of blocks of my "Wizard of Oz" quilt. It is going to be a gift quilt, but I was not liking it!  Then I came to terms that I did not have to like it!  But it was a quick quilt to go together. First pic is with the final borders not on yet. This next pic is with the borders on. I like the quilt top much better with the borders. It has a blue gingham border all around ,except the poppies are only one the one side. I have almost finished another block from my "Sophie's Garden" quilt..... Just need to stitch around the flowers. I also got the binding sewn down on my taupe embroidery quilt which Rebecca Annakkala quilted for me. Linking up with  juliekquilts.blogspot.com/2015/05/binding-blitz-and-some-other-things.html All for now must cook supperand do a few errands, chatter later,Martha.

I am going to link up with Slow Stitching Sunday for this post. I have a pile of quilts that have been quilted for about a year. Today while I am watching Game of Thrones ,I thought I might get rid of at least one.   It is about 70" square and all taupes. There are 9 blocks of embroidery on it also.  Here are some pics.... I used a varigated embroidery thread. My lilac bush smells so lovely every time I go outside to take pics.  Really more of a tree, that my neighbor and I share. I have also started another lap size quilt useing Wizard of OZ fabrics. Only a couple of blocks finished. Chatter later, Martha.
