judy, pretty sampler quilt!

gentle hugs for Weasie & love your scrappy 25 Patch & pretty quilting on it, too!

Thanks Emma, I was really on the fence about the fabrics until it came together.

I have half a lap quilt to hand bind and then it is finished. It is the second stitch in the ditch machine quilting I have ever done. My mentor said I did well. Picture me doing the happy dance. I love getting patted on the head.

Then it's on to the true UFO the stained glass butterfly. I'm not looking forward to returning to that one. I guess I'm afraid that it will get even worse rather than better.

I have heard of quilting on the back before , you had the perfect fabric to do this...awesome job :)

Nice quilts Sherry and weasier...Love the way the backs help tell the story of the front sides...:thumbup:

Ok I've got maybe two more lengths of thread to go on the community quilt, then it is done. I hope to finish that tonight.

Love all the finishes so much!! That 25 patch is great and something I should do if I ever get past my UFO's for now. I did just finish my little boys quilt with matching pillowcase, called Marty Goes To Mars. Can't remember which month that will be. Probably April. Photos later for proof I have finished one. LOL

I did one quilt, quilting from the back. It was very easy, no marking.

Finished the 2nd community quilt. I'll link to it when it comes up on our quilt club website.

What is it about July that always makes you start thinking about Christmas. This was a Xmas quilt that I was so disappointed in that I folded it and put it away. As you can see, I didn't even finish the borders. Well today I pulled it out and kind of like it. Was going to ask for suggestions to save the quilt but kind of thinking I will just let it be. What do you think?

Emma--pretty quilt top...makes me think of candy canes :)
