2018 UFO Challenge of the Month
#451
Krisb - Love two sided quilts. YOu did a fantastic job on them both.
Kristakz, every once in awhile, we get one of those projects that just challenge us to the end. You can get thru it, yes you can.
I am at least stitching down that binding. Will work on today during lunch. I have preloaded my needles and am determined to muster thru it. This last Sunday, I finished quilting three more. They need trimmed and bound yet also. Not sure will get done for the month of February, but two of them are UFOs and the other is On Ringo Lake. If I run out of work to do at office, will do some binding.

Krisb, Your quilt is wonderful! I have never done a two sided quilt and at my age will probably never!

Cherrybsixty, i’m Glad you have 2 of your machines back in order so you can get back to sewing.
rryder, your whole cloth is fabulous. Great FMQing.
Krisb, your Alletierre is fabulous. I like your colors and finish.
Krisb = your 2 side quilt is fabulous. The paper pieced side is so pretty And the other side, the judy train mystery #18 is so pretty.

Krisb- that is awesome, great 2 kills in 1.
Oksewglad- congrats that is a lot of pieces in a small space.
Been working on the baby quilt today. The colors are not in the correct order just up on the wall for spacing and to make sure I don't have too many of one color.

I don't want to make it too wide or too tall, my designs tend to grow larger than I wanted them to be. Not sure what I want to put on the back.

My progress is coming along. I have a small mug rug done and a charity quilt 40” square done. The mug rug is a few years old and the charity quilt blocks were started several years ago. I just stitched in the ditch and did large quilting. The good news they are done.
My next project, to finish my whale quillow. I have the large quilt portion sewn together, just need to quilt. The batting is fairly thick and i’m Limited on the FMQ pattern. So i’m Hoping to do it on the long arm. Then I need to do the small 20” pocket. A day or 2 of sewing and quilting and it should be done. I’m hoping to finish my small Twilling heart. I need to do some Twilling stitch on a inner heart and sandwich and minor quilting. I’ll start that tomorrow. Time to fix dinner and watch tv shows.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]589843[/ATTACH]It's as far as I'm going to take it. My quilt auction won't take it machine quilted, and I don't do hand quilting. So this is as done as it's going to get. I was in the Spring Churn Dash swap and here is what I got. I really love it. If someone comes along and wants it long armed, then I'll do that. Marcia
Kris I just love that Allitaire.
