Maria;
Gorgeous quilt. Love the colors and the pattern. It is simply stunning. You and Rosie work well together indeed.

Maria, Very pretty Mariner's Compass quilt and cute machine!

I'm loving all the quilts, and am a little jealous that others are getting beautiful work done!! :)

I sat down at a sewing machine for the first time in a couple of months (other than to test one) and finally finished this pillow. (I know...not a quilt, but it felt good to sew so I'm sharing! :D ) This pillow has been THIRTY years in the making!! I embroidered it in 1981. Didn't feel confident finishing it, not with the piping and zipper, so gave it to my mama to finish. I got it back in 2005, and finished it about 15 minutes ago!! Just call me "Speedy!" :D :D :D Used my 403 to finish it with.

Charlee, That's a pretty pillow! Better late than never. There is such a wonderful feeling completing a long term project!

Charlee, that is a pretty pillow. That embroidery looks extensive, and way more than this gal will hand sew.

Must be Mamas compelling us about projects this week. That quilt I put on here that I whipped up for the door prize thing looks just like my late mama would have made. My daughters both said, "OMG, it looks like a grandma quilt!"

A very pretty pillow with lovely embroidery - more than I could do. Piping - more than I want to do. Good finish!

My oldest daughter's b'day quilt is finished! I didn't like it and had to do some other things like gardening, so it took forever. Besides, it's two quilts because I didn't like the front.
Front: Snowballs and 9Ps with a strip of appliqued flowers. Back: Sunny Lanes from quilterscache. Scrappy piano keys border w/2 color binding.
Piecing: AnnieRose, a 1956 Singer 301
Applique: 1973 Elna 62C - a perfect satin stitch and blanet stitch
Quilting: 301 until her plug assembly blew so a 1940s Necchi took over (15 clone said no)
Decorative stitching in the red: 1970s Montgomery Ward made by Juki
This is a vintage e machine quilt - maybe it's name should be "With a Little Help From My Friends"

Irish Rose, It's a beautiful quilt. Your daughter is going to love it.

Charlee.... doesn't it feel good to get a past project done? I love it. In fact, other than emergency things, I've been trying to get some past projects finished so I can go on to some new things..... too many emergency things (great-granddaughter's birthday dress, daughter's 25th anniversary quilt, etc.) keep getting in the way....

Here's one I just finished:

Pieced on my Singer 401A, hand appliqued, quilted on my vintage 70's Bernina Record 830. The pattern is from Fat Quarter Quilting by Lori Smith.

Irishrose, That is a gorgeous quilt!! I love both sides. I'm a big fan of double-sided quilts. Nicely done!!
