I have a small finish for July but I am unable to take a picture right now due to traveling. It is a small quilt made from a "honey bun" I bought years ago. Once we stop long enough for a picture, I will post it.

Sandy I just love your finish. It is so pretty. You did a great job improving on the original top. I love your creativity. Good luck on your showing.

I love all of the finishes this month. All so creative and candy for the eyes. I so enjoy this thread.

I have a small panel ufo completed. I just had to do the quilting on the machine. As noted nothing fancy. I'm trying to practice my straight quilting. [ATTACH=CONFIG]577754[/ATTACH]Now to put in in the closet, until next holiday. I also completed a lab dog pillowcase, not shown. I'm not going to post a pic of that. I also sent 3 UFO's to longarmer to get quilted. I figure next month for at least 2 finishes. So for this month's count, 1 UFO finish. I'm also trying to finish my UFO RWB table topper. I just need to layer the pieces and quilt the top. Next month finish. This month I'm still working on my BHMQ top. It should be finished next week. Unless I get side tracked. Which I do frequently.

Happysewing/quilting everyone.

You ladies and gents have been working on some lovely additions to the list. You can each be very proud of yourself. I am finding my confidence in FMQ which is a wonderful feeling. Hope to have something posted soon.

happylab...congrats on the finished panel quilt.

I know all about getting side-tracked. I am forcing myself to finish all the UFOs I have and not add to them, but it's a struggle. I already have plans to start 3 new patterns...a landscape one, either a fractured or a bargello pattern(probably fractured) and a simple pattern using scraps so I can practice FMQ.(that should be fun...or not!!)

I have a last minute UFO finish for July, just under the wire. I got the binding on today! This is the Baby's First Year Quilt I made for my daughter's friend. The baby is 2 1/2 now, it's been a UFO for a while. LOL

Great job on the baby clothes quilt. These type of quilts tend to be intensive. Well done!

wildyard, how did you attach the clothes to the block? It is really cute. I have been asked about doing that with some baby clothes, but wasn't sure the process people are using. Thanks.
