    auntjo, I love the pic in the other thread; the quilt fits so nicely on the bed. Make sure you all go to thread to see it.

    I finally finished this 4 yo WIP--here's the start

    http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...lt-t73694.html

    And here's the finish. I MQ straight lines through the white squares onto the border with a variegated pastel thread. This goes to my 5 yo GD for Christmas--think she'll love it. Now to make a matching pillowcase from the leftovers.

    And the back that slowed the process down

    Sorry about that--I used the icon in the reply dialog box. To avoid a double posting of pictures I then went to Go Advanced and deleted the pics from the Manage attachments. I can see them in my post, but guess you guys can't so will re send. From now on I won't use the image icon in the dialog box, but upload from Manage Attachments.

    Thanks, nanna. It's 48 x 72 so it will just fit on her bed.

    Totals for September: we had five completed UFO's, bringing our total up to 209! September was the month for vacations, getting homesteads ready for winter, etc. I think from now to the end of the year we are really going to be working away!

    Jwardknits - your Christmas tree was lovely.
    Lilrain - beautiful butterfly quilt. The fabrics worked so well together.
    Auntjo - STUNNING quilt! I really admire that it's going to be a gift for someone. I don't think I'd be able to give it up!
    oksewglad - I love your 9-patch quilt. the colors you have used make it beautifully retro!

    I'll be back at the winter house soon.... so I can finish my last UFO. I can still pop in and cheer you all on, can't I? I really hope I don't start piling up the UFOs again.
