What amazing quilts you guys are finishing! I have one finish in January that I gave away and just got a picture. It's a simple patchwork ISpy quilt that has 100 different fabrics. Instead of binding, I used the envelope? Method to see the layers together. Then I topstitched and sewed some straight lines corner to corner. So 1 finish for January![ATTACH=CONFIG]509972[/ATTACH]

I Spy quilts are always fun and make me want to be around the small child who can point out all the neat things when I ask them to find them. Lucky child to receive this.

Finally got this quilted and bound. Guess I should have pressed it before snapping a pic....horrible fold wrinkle in the center, sorry.
I'm donating this to our local firefighters who do the charity stair climb in Seattle. They are have a fundraiser this week. Hope it makes some money for them! I envy the I Spy quilts....I just don't have the fabrics for them but I am working on it....lol Hope everyone has a good weekend![ATTACH=CONFIG]510254[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]510255[/ATTACH] Marilyn |
What a lovely quilt, Marilyn! It should make money for them. Hope it sells well. I think all I do is create more UFO's..currently making some pieces for the LQS to proof some designs I made for them. In between I lead and end with a big little 9P project. Oh well it's cold outside so feeding the birds and dogs is enough outside work!

Evie -
That's just beautiful! What a wonderful tribute to your mother. Very nicely done. Jane |
Marilyn, great quilt like your color placement. Kind of you to donate it to a great cause :)

Marilyn, I like your quilt. Hope it gets lots of money for the firemen. I especially like the variegated binding. I am doing more of those with each quilt I make, especially the scrappy ones.

I'm enjoying seeing everyone's UFO's getting done. They are all so pretty.
Thank-you for the idea of using scrappy fabric for binding on my scrappy quilts. I just realized this month is 1/2 over and I haven't started quilting on my February project. That's a tomorrow project. Then I will start back to working on my orange sampler quilt. I only have 9 more individual blocks to do. Then I can start putting the quilt together. |

I've been working away - but none of the projects I've worked on can count as a UFO. I call it UFO prevention :)
Oh well, I do have one UFO which is now quilted. Will post a pic as soon as I get the binding on. It's hanging in the doorway to my sewing room in an attempt to encourage me to move it along. Didn't help yesterday :) |
