I had been working on several projects to have then ready for the hand work to do while I was laid up. But it seems I have spent a lot of time on the quilting board. So when I done with this back to the sewing projects. [ATTACH=CONFIG]313239[/ATTACH] Hope you recover quickly from the knee surgery. I too spend too much time on QB. I didn't get on here yesterday and look at all the new finishes! |

Finished another quilt today. One block wonder I started about 3 years ago. Had it all pieced but just got it quilted last week. Gave me another thing to work on while I am laid up after knee surgery
[ATTACH=CONFIG]313306[/ATTACH] Having the surgery has been a positive thing for you....at least in the quilting area...look at all the UFOs you are completing. Did you have knee replacement? My DH had hip replacement last summer....helped him a lot. |

Evie sent me this partially finished kit that was all sunflower fabric, so it is done and ready to get mailed to the Hopes and Dreams project for ALS. She had even done one of the satin stitch appliqué blocks, so only one left for me. It looks black, but only the background on the appliqué blocks is black. The balance is very deep green.

Finally got the runners made that go with the last 3 quilts I posted here...I usually make runners from scraps from the quilts...sometimes they are scraps from scrap quilts too.
My favorite one is the last pic...green one.....nice one to use on Paddy's Day. I have printed off many pages of runner/wall hanging pics for inspiration. They are inspirations for quick projects I have planned for this coming summer. First, I have to finish quilting the tops I did last year. I still have 5 to do. |

Just realized, I'd forgotten to post 2 other UFO's that tops were done last year & finally quilted & bound this week, too! The Dora quilt is SITD & around the center of the stars & I used varigated thread for the hearts. The bear panel quilt is enlarged with scraps & I outline stitched everything.
Here's a link to my panel quilt. http://www.quiltingboard.com/members...bums17003.html |

WOW! You ladies are doing fantastic. Love seeing the finished quilts. That One Fabric Wonder quilt really inspires me to get mine done. I love that pattern. Your fabric really made this quilt work. Did you do kaleidescope or just cut and place?
