This quilt may not make it to the chemo room; my DH was napping on the couch today and I put it on him (to replace his old raggedy flannel shirt jacket he usually uses as a blanket ... eeuch!) and he said it was really nice and cozy, so I may just let him keep it. I used flannel for the backing, which adds to the cozy factor! |

This was my first train ride. Really liked the finished quilts. Does anyone know when the next train ride is. I came upon this one after it had already started. Don't want to miss the next one.

They are going to love it. I like the tacking stitch in the middle of your blocks, looks good. I also like the way you quilted on the white fabric. Do you mind if I copy you on what you did on the white fabric? It's going to be the end of next month, I think before I start quilting on my.

Quilt Addict love your top!

I've finished my top! Quilting will have to wait til we get back from SB XLVII!
|
This quilt makes me happy! I love the bright red stars!
|
I love all the quilts that are showing up!
Mary, I will be looking for you in the crowd on sunday! I just realized, from seeing the date, that I will be a grandma by the time of the next mystery quilt!! That shouldn't slow me down too much. At least I won't be going on any trips during the next one. I got back last night from an 8 day trip to Florida to visit my mom. Thought I might go to the grocery store today but the schools are closed due to ice so I'd better stay home. |
finished!

I finally got all of the handstitching done on the binding over the weekend. I've had this quilted for a couple of weeks but got sidetracked by a couple of other projects. This one will be a graduation gift for one of our grandsons,we have 3 graduating from HS this year. I kept the quilting pretty basic, it seems like the graduation quilts take a beating.
Thanks so much Judy for this great trip, I'm so pleased to have one of my gift quilts finished! |
dhanke-- love it !!!
|
dhanke: It looks great! Like the back too!
|
Every time I see a new one I get inspired! Need to get busy and finish adding the other borders to mine so I can do another one.
|
dhanke: Gorgeous colors. I love the dark chocolate!
|
Wow dhanke! Beautiful!
|
Love the sashing. That will work for just about everything I make. Thanks for posting the tutorial numbers. It made it much easier to find the directions.
|
Dhanke, I love your quilt! The blue and brown were a great choice!
|
very nice quilts
|
I very seldom have time to see all of a thread, but you girls have enticed me to see all your wonderful "Variations on a theme" --- there's such a great variety, and they are all lovely. I want to run downstairs and do one for myself RIGHT NOW!!

[ATTACH=CONFIG]396246[/ATTACH]I finally finished the top but I may add a border so I won't lose the star points with a wider binding. I can't get a picture uploaded with my IPad even though I chose my picture. Oh, well.
|
Well I got the picture uploaded but it is too big. Sorry as this was my first try to put a picture in my reply. :)
|
not too big on my screen. Looks great! I like the fabric in your blue stars
|
Looks great!
|
They are stunning well done.
|
I added a navy border and love it even more now. It will be donated as all of the material was from my MIL's stash or donated to a church group except from the beige with brown lines in it. That was supposed to be curtains for my kitchen years ago. :)
A special thanks to Irishrose for posting directions to upload a few weeks back. Connie |

|
|
That's pretty!! Great work on it.
|

That's a great combination, Laura. I like how the stars pop :)
|
I love it! This is definitely a keeper pattern! Will do this one this year!
|
All those quilts are beauties!
|
I love to use that star setting, but have never done it with 9 patches. I love the effect, especially your big one.
