I quilted this for my neighbor-her first attempt at set in blocks.
This is hers, too, a table runner with scraps.
Mom helped me load my quilt top on the frame.
I picked a paisley pantograph for both of our quilts.
We moved on to piecing some quilt tops for the QuiltsforKids charity. I had cut out these pieces from my stash; it is nice to have fabric in a quilt instead of in a pile in the closet!
I made this one and then had time to piece one more,
... another pink one! We cut out the backings to match and have them all piled and waiting for this quilter to get going!
On my needles, the Shetlander pattern for fingerless gloves. It is not a fast knit but it is turning out pretty so it's an okay knit for a change! (I am on clue three for the mystery shawl-it is slowing down as the shawl grows but it is a good knit!)

This post is full of lovely colors! Nice to have a backlog of projects...or at least, it's nicer than the alternative of no projects at all!
ReplyDeleteI am green with envy over your quilting machine.
ReplyDeleteBut I really like those gloves! I love the colors very much.
My Friend you are a quilting mad woman!! WOW, really beautiful work, I can't believe how may projects your working on, blows my mind.
ReplyDeleteWow...you made all those quilts?!? And I'm still agonizing over a little 12x12.
