Such lovely finishes everyone. Thank-you for carrying me for a while. When My Longer armer gets back from summer vacation I will have a few more UFO's completed. Probably in July or August. I have 2 or three waiting to be quilted.

I'm still working on WIP BHMQ 2016. I figure another 2-3 weeks to complete the top. I'm 3-6 1/2 square blocks short. So have to go back in my stash and find a few more scraps of background fabric. Then I can finish putting together the last 3 15 1/2" blocks and start putting it all together. I'm so excited about finishing this project. I'm making progress, Just not on my UFO's. Next project maybe.

Ok, I am procrastinating on my three UFO projects and two of them need done this weekend. Yucky. They just are tedious.

anne2016 06-13-2017 08:51 AM

I have a finish for June. I have had this quilt in the works for more than a year. I will get pics within the next few days.

This has been around for a long time waiting to be finished. I think it was an E. Burns pattern with the word Stones in the title. Sorry if pics are large. My editing software doesn't work.... or I am to dense to figur[ATTACH=CONFIG]574600[/ATTACH]e out how it works!

QuilterMomma 06-14-2017 03:07 PM

Love your color choices. Great job.

Kassaundra 06-14-2017 03:18 PM

Awesome finish Anne, the colors sing w/ that white.

anne2016, so bright and cheerful.

rryder 06-15-2017 03:26 AM

I like your color choices and the way the white squares show off the secondary pattern.

Nice!

Anne2016 #1247, just loving the colors combination and the white setting off the 'irish chain effect.'

Happy sewing everyone

I'm not sure how long these have been hanging in the closet, at least 2 years, but it seems they just kept getting shoved to the back. Finally finished these this last week. They were made from the birthday swap candies and the dresdan is from leftover scraps from several Boom swaps.[ATTACH=CONFIG]574658[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]574659[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]574660[/ATTACH]Slowly but surely the closet is getting emptied.

Mariposa 06-15-2017 06:23 AM

Terrific finishes, ladies! :)

anne2016 06-15-2017 06:27 AM

jaba....great finishes. The first scrappy one is a scrappy beauty!. Scrappies are my favorites and I really like that pattern.

joe'smom 06-15-2017 06:48 AM

Such a pretty finish, anne! The white makes it look so fresh and crisp.

Beautiful scrappies, jaba!

QuilterMomma 06-15-2017 06:58 AM

Love those scrappies Jaba. Good color placement.

My first art piece. No not a UFO, but a finish.

QM, post #1258, I just love your FMQ on your 1st art piece. Very lovely.

QMomma...congrats on finishing your first art piece. It is great and it looks like you are very good at FMQ. Nice work!

jaba, Belfry, and QMomma...nice finishes:thumbup:...QMomma your triangular shaped block and the overall design makes me see a house on a hill...

JuanitaBean 06-15-2017 02:03 PM

Jaba like your quilts . QM great Art quilt. Anne like your quilt.

rryder 06-15-2017 06:43 PM

I like those scrappies, Jaba. Great patterns for the Birthday swap candies.

QuilterMomma 06-16-2017 07:45 AM

The hardest part of that piece is I did it all on my domestic machine. They are mostly Cindy Needham designs.

Love it Beth. There is just something about sit down versus long arm quilting. Very nice!

jaba, very lovely finishes.

QuilterMomma, congrats on finishing your art piece. It has a very modern feel to it.

Anne2016 & Jaba -- wonderful finishes. I love the colours in Anne's quilt and Jaba's are truly scrappilicious.
Quilter Momma -- nice wall hanging.

I finished another one. This was a block swap on another board about 3 years ago. I assembled the blocks at a quilt retreat in Branson then put it in a drawer and forgot about it so pulled it out last month to quilt it. I finally finished it yesterday.

anne2016 06-17-2017 08:14 AM

Oh my, Belfrybat, that is soooo pretty. Lovely colors. Glad you got it finished. Will it be gifted or are you keeping it for yourself?

Sync 06-17-2017 11:10 AM

Belfrybat, lovely colors. Purples, Pinks, and Greens always make for a sweet combination.

Belfrybat 06-17-2017 12:16 PM

Thank you. It's a charity quilt -- about 60 x 60".

Janice McC 06-17-2017 12:33 PM

Congratulations on your finish! It's so colorful and cherry! toot, toot!

I really like your art quilt, QuilterMomma. The colors are so pleasing and that is some beautiful quilting!

Such a pretty finish, Belfrybat!

Belfrybat, love the soft colors in your quilt. I just want to cuddle it:)
QM, nice landscape...that is one thing I have never tried, well that and paper pieced beauty.
I swore to myself this year these UFO's were going to be done so they could be donated to a worthy cause. Here's 2 more to add to the 3 I just posted. These were made from the candy swap too. Sewed the binding on or they wouldn't be done. Have to show you a pic our littlest grand daughter. She's been walking for about 2 1/2 weeks and going great guns! Myla will be a year old July31st. Can't wait, she'll be here for 8 days on the 30th of this month[ATTACH=CONFIG]574880[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]574881[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]574882[/ATTACH]

happylab 06-18-2017 02:43 PM

I love all of the scrappy quilts everyone has completed, OH so pretty!!!:) That is my focus for the next few years. To do several of the scrappy quilts I had on my wish list, (I have 2 completed). Keep completing the UFO's everyone.

I decided to complete a UFO RWB table runner. I have 12 days. I can do this!!!

happylab 06-18-2017 02:46 PM

Jaba, you have a very pretty little helper. Her outfit is so cute and pretty. I hope you have fun with her stay.

anne2016 06-18-2017 02:54 PM

Congrats jaba!....great finishes. Your little grand-daughter is adorable!
