What a beautiful quilt. and SO well quilted! Don't think I'll be posting any close-ups of my quilting stitches :-) I'm hoping to finish my February UFO this weekend. Then I can look at Jan, March and April's. Sigh.

And, April is just beginning and you are done already.!!
p.s. As for the choice of colours (aussie spelling as well!), I save my scraps and the smaller ones I cut into 1 1/2 inch strips. When I have enough, I make a log cabin quilt with whatever I have available in a certain range of colours. However it comes out, that's what it is! As you can tell, the results can have some interesting or weird combinations, to say the least.

I am impressed! Perhaps there is hope that I can finish my "Winter Wreath" tabletopper after 13 years of it being in my things to complete pile. I hand pieced the variation of drunkard's path using a unique blue tone snowflake fabric from WalMart and white muslin, Then went to find backing and nothing worked with the blue and life continued for 12 years --- finally found a fabric for backing and life continued=== just unearthed this the other week while packing to move. So I will finish this by Easter or find someone else to give it a home.

Oooooh that log cabin is pretty.
Can't post pics yet, as they are not DONE, but on Monday 26 tops go out in three PP boxes to be finished and donated. YIPEEE--a BIG tote, a basket, and a box empty.
I will post pics when they are tied and bound....
I have a couple of other projects done, but cannot get my stupid CD drawers to open in the computer so I can put in the CD to download the pics form the digital camera I bought.
GRRRRR.
