Here's my 2nd UFO of the month, 4th of the year. Actually it's the 1st UFO; what I'm counting as my 1st was a PIG. I needed to work on something start to finish, so I made "Memories of Yosemite". That gave me enough of a feeling of accomplishment that I was able to finish this challenge. The top was layered and SID and some outline quilting back in 2008 when I started this. I don't FMQ, but kept hoping I learn. The borders needed something more, so I finally asked DD to FM it for me. She did flowers, swirls and leafy vines. It looked much better when she finished.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]404817[/ATTACH]The name is "Dorothy Got Whacked". I used a pattern from Bethany Reynolds' "Stack "N Whack" book. I'm not happy with parts of it, some points were cut off, but I love the look of the finished kaleidoscopes. On the whole, I like it. |
Jo: Great finish. Love the way the yellow triangles create a setting for the hexes.

I've been workin' so much on several things that I don't want ta become UFO's. LOL This is one o' 'em. My PC block exchange. :) .http://www.quiltinghaven.com/index.p...ch=73610;image If ya notice there are 2 squares at the bottom that are red. I took the bottom row off & sewed it back on wrong again. LOL I now have that fixed & have put one border on. A tiny turquoise one. I plan on a 2" black one then a tiny red one & another 2" black one. Then I'll bind it in turquoise. I have been also workin' on my DGD's quilt. I don't have a pict o' that loaded onta my computer yet. Maybe These won't become UFO's. :) So I took another couple o' picts on my own camera. :) [ATTACH=CONFIG]404828[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]404829[/ATTACH] I fixed the bottom row & put the first tiny border. I still have 2 black borders, w/a tiny red one in between, ta put on it. :) I'll bind it in the turquoise. |
gramajo--a very nice finish!
dublb--can't wait to see your quilt with all the borders. :) |
Great finishes! I'm getting there, slowly but surely. All I lack is the binding. Seems like its taken me forever to make myself finish quilting this one, finally got it done a few minutes ago. Will show picture when it is completely finished.

Mom-6 Bells and whistles. I have been quilting my March UFO for 2 weeks now, just seeing the light at....! Congrads on your finish. Don't think I will make the March finish but at least close.

dublb....nice going. You're model is expressive too. He gave me a laugh.
|
Love that Kalidescope grammajo. that is so nice. The yellow does add a smile on your face. Oh I am hoping to get a few of mine done. I have seven quilt tops waiting to be quilted. Got to get busy on them.

Looks good dulb, great job on finally getting it the way you want it. That makes UFOs even harder to get thru when they won't go together right. I still think they have minds of their own. LOL
