Amazing quilt skirt. Congratulations, QM! Toot Toot![QUOTE=QuilterMomma;7614351][ATTACH=CONFIG]554848[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]554849[/ATTACH]
Yes!!!!! All done with another. Way to make me get some bindings done. Now one more that needs binding and it may take awhile, scalloped borders. At least it is attached and ready to sew. It may end up an August finish. As you can tell, made use of the left overs also so I used up all my fabric for this project., I have scraps left and may make some ornaments or pot holders to coordinate for the kids. We shall see, no promises till I get there.[/QUOTE]

Adorable owl fabric. Toot, toot (or should that be Hoot, Hoot?) for your UFO finish. Congrats.

I finished the quilting on my chubby churn dash, now all that has to be done is the binding .......... <sigh> I thought I had enough of the fabric I wanted to use for the binding but when I went searching for it this morning all I found was a small scrap .......... arrrrrgh now I have to think of a back up plan. Anyway, here's a picture of my little quilt finished and waiting for its binding.

I am going to have my pixal quilt done too, today I am quilting it, SID around the 9P blocks, tomorrow the binding. Now my son wants us to tie it also in the center of the 9P but I am NOT counting that as part of finishing the quilt. He wants to do that in tribute to his old quilt that has been worn out and was only tied, and not quilted. It's fine with me to tie it also, but the quilt is finished with the quilting IMHO. So I'm counting it done once I get the binding sewn tomorrow. Here is a photo of the flimsy, this quilt is the logo for my sons art and design stuff he does. It's 78x 109 and I can't get it all in one photo. This is only about 2/3 of it.

Thank you, oksewglad. But .... lol ..... part of my problem is that all the blocks and the background were made out of scraps and leftovers. I'll just have to dig deep into my stash and find either some fabric that looks good or sew a bunch of scraps together. I have even gone through my binding leftovers ....... nothing speaks up yet!

Momma- love the tree skirt, way to go on the binding.

Oksewglad- that's a cute quilt, I bet your GD loves it

Tambing--cool pillow cases, I love the owls, what a nice gift to go with the quilt.

Sheri-beautiful quilts, and welcome to the board,

Default UFO Done!

Hey all, here's my July UFO finish. It started out life as a very different quilt several years ago. When I pulled it out of the UFO pile at the beginning of the month I decided I wouldn't be happy with it if I just sandwiched and quilted it. So, I cut it up into strips and squares, then pulled some light valued batiks from my stash and pieced those and the cut up top into 4 patch units and disappearing 4 patch units, then added the orange fabric from my stash so the blocks would float. It ended up being about 67" square. Here's pics of the front and back with some details of the quilting. I have enough left overs from the original top to do at least one more quilt LOL!

Wow, Rryder, great quilt! Like the orange background, the floating blocks, the quilting, your use of color. What's not to like? Toot, Toot! Congratulations
