Carriem - your quilt is gorgeous. The flange is really nice, that's a new technique that i've been wanting to try out.

I'm pretty proud of this UFO Finish... at 60.5" by 72.5" it is the biggest top I have quilted myself by far. And, I'd do it again!

The blocks are from an online swap at the HGTV Forum years ago (2006 or so). I assembled the top right after the blocks arrived and bought backing for it intending it to send it out for quilting at some point. I'm going to keep it in my car to use at outdoor sporting events for a cuddle quilt.

Oh, as, it's a great finish. I really love it.

Nice job. 9 patches are so versatile.

simplelife--another great finish! I'm tackling my UFO pile--no I won't count them--would take too much time:D

Today spray basted a 2009 UFO and will be quilting that later this week. Finished the binding on this Christmas wall hanging. It's small enough for a table topper too. Guess I shouldn't have used the gray back ground--quilt attached to the fleece so nicely though![ATTACH=CONFIG]437555[/ATTACH]

I think it looks good with the gray.

September's finish is from a 12 block swap in 2009! I finally know someone who is into Hot air Balloons!

Well, dang, had I known you were looking, I would have volunteered ages ago. We crewed for a hot air balloon pilot for about 8 years before moving from Ohio to New York. What a wonderful time that was! A free ride for every 10 times of crewing.

Wow great finishes this month!! I hope to have a couple more small runners done to share by the end of Sept. I am just glad the airplane quilt got finished!

oksewglad - Beautiful finish! I love the how the diamond grid of white squares sets off the other blocks.

missgigglewings - Adorable hot air balloons... how fun! I went hot air ballooning in Napa Valley 2 years ago - something I always wanted to do. Loved every minute!
