Another batch of great finishes. I love the new additions.
Here is my proof - happy hubby holding his runner.

I found another UFO in my effort to clean off the counter in my sewing room. It's an iron-on swirl applique made from batik charms. (One of those positive/negative projects.) All the pieces are cut and ironed on but I haven't decided what color to use for the blanket stitch. I want to use a common thread color throughout, but grey, tan, beige, or white......? Time to puddle some thread on the pieces.

Good Job Martina! I love the way you pieced the blue triangles!

Thanks :)

The blue triangles are made from "crumb fabric." I took a bunch of blue scraps and sewed them together kind of willy-nilly. Then recut into the triangle shapes.

Congrats on great finishes, everyone!

OhCanada, what an interesting quilt, and that's such a pretty quilting design you chose. It looks like a big step up from meandering.

I'm trying to work up my nerve to start the quilting on my next UFO. We've been staring each other down for days, LOL. Meanwhile, I am progressing steadily on the binding I've been stitching.

I love the idea of that dragonfly wall hanging! Is that a pattern that is available to purchase? Good luck finishing!
