Love cheddar! Congratulations on this beautiful mini UFO finish. (YOU determine the "UFO-ness" of a piece.). It's lovely. Toot, toot.

I love cheddar reproduction fabric most so I really like this being finished. It took me SIX months to hand quilt! Not because it was difficult. I'm just very easily distracted... I'm not sure if you can see the hand quilting or not. :D

Sheri R, you won me over with your color choice (brown family) and the hand quilt made me take the second look, beautiful work and an awesome piece. Happy sewing day everyone.

That's so pretty, SheriR! I have a new appreciation of cheddar since following your progress on the last two mysteries.

Beautiful SheriR, I love this fabric as well. Has to feel good to finish it since it took you six months.

Oh guess what, no, no more finishes from me this month, but hopefully five next month depending on quilting time. But I get to go to Duluth, MN for the quilt show there. Husband is letting me leave the state by myself to go to a quilt show to view judging for my certification. I am excited. Can't wait to go.

SheriR that's very pretty and elegant.

QuilterMomma - lucky you! Enjoy and please tell us about your experience.

QuilterMomma, I am excited for you, please let hear of your experience, that sound so wonderful. Hope that it's not that much of a challenge. Happy sewing everyone on my way to work on my May finish.

QMomma...the MN show is a great show, I try to get to it when it's closer to home. Congratulations on your certification process.

Finally have a couple finishes. These are charity quilts made for the Honor Flight attendees. The one with stars was a 3-year-old UFO. Even worse, yesterday I found a top that I thought was quilted and long donated!! Guess I'd better get busy.[ATTACH=CONFIG]570779[/ATTACH]
