If you turn your back on this site you can really miss out. Look, new format! Wow! Very nice!!
Then Look at all those quilts I've missed! Most Excellent!
Here's what I've been working on. I've kept myself busy!
Whirligigs is my new quilt top. By the time I got it into one piece I was sick of it! I've folded that quilt top up and put it away. It needs to "ripen" for awhile. Too many triangles. This pattern is in the book "Strip-Pieced Quilts - Easy Design from Just Six Fabrics" by Maaike Bakker.
I'm also posting three quilts that are completed. Just to prove that I've not been totally wasting my time here. The BOM sampler was made from blocks posted in our BOM section. So is the Scalloped sampler that I'll post in a minute.
The "Sampler-48" is made up of 6" blocks that my sister and I worked on. It was started in 2007. So, three done! Many, many more waiting!!!

And my scalloped border sampler. Those scallops are not as easy as they look in various tutorials. Eleanor Burns makes it look so very simple! NOT!! It's also a lot longer around when you're hand stitching the binding! Amazing how much longer those scallops make the binding. Glad it's done!
