What a nice finish....kudos Annaquilts:thumbup:

Anna: That turned out beautifully. Love the way you laid out and combined all of the diverse blocks. Great quilt!

Thanks everyone for the feedback on my quilt/quilts. I am such a prolific flimsy maker that I figure I can finish two tops and combine them to make one quilt and cut down the number I make. So thanks to your recommendations I just doubled the number of quilts I made so far this year. Still want to try for a quilt a month even though it is late in the year. I have five more sandwiched and waiting to be quilted so it isn't as impossible as it sounds. The quilting on the current finish was quilted with a simple cross hatch so from quilting to finish it only took a week. The next one will be FM so it will take a little longer.

I love your blue quilts. And I love the reversible-ness of it. Keep up the good work and I hope you reach your goal of 12 quilts this year.

Love it
 
I never would have thought of those blocks for a patriotic quilt. It is fantastic.

You all are going to laugh at me. I finished my quilt club name tag. I had to do it three times to get it done. I ended up fusing and satin stitching it together rather than using either the piecing or paper piecing techniques that were suggested. Im so glad my mentor suggested it.

I'm straight line quilting the sampler. Its the largest I have quilted so far. It is 54 x 78

Emma your blue quilts are exquisite and have so many small pieces. Best wishes with your goal of completing 12 quilts.

Annaquilts....I love your red and blue patriotic quilt. It is gorgeous. Now you are ready for those patriotic holidays coming up.

Wow! Loving all the finishes. Everyone is really working hard. Since I have gotten to be a better quilter, I too, have tried to make the back of the quilt just as interesting as the front side. Doesn't always work out but makes it more fun for me. You will see the back of my TATW one in a week, I am hoping. I have rounded the first corner and about 6 inches away from the 2nd. (Hand binding part). I only do this at night so takes a while..too many other things int he daylight hours.

I certainly do love seeing all the finished quilts!! I'm way behind but I think I'm at a point where I can get back into the groove.

Katie ... Your Garden Blooms quilt is adorable. Especially love the grasshopper!

Emma ... Love what you did with the front & back of your grandson's quilt! Just beautiful!

Anna ... Fantastic job done on the patriotic red, white & blue quilt.

Hope all the Moms had a wonderful Mother's Day!

I picked up a community quilt to machine quilt and bind to add to my UFO list. I am giving myself a deadline of June 8th the next meeting of the community group.
