The binding was put on the purple quilt and then I tossed them both in the washer/dryer so they are ready to mail out on Monday.
I included a hug with each quilt so they will comfort a child in need.
I then got to work piecing all of the blocks for my new bed quilt-and even the rows are seamed. This quilt is large!
I am making it 117" by 99" so I am almost half done.
(13 blocks by 11 rows total)
I have another finish--the bowl is completed; all of the layers of shellac applied with sanding in between each one!
I present the inside of the bowl--such a confluence of grains!
It is so pretty, if I do say so myself!
I like to keep some of the wood's imperfections-this is the outside of the log left as part of the side instead of being turned away.
Also, this little depression with wrinkles was carefully kept as part of the rim;
so that the whole is fascinating and keeps your eye moving from one area to the next!
(9" round and 6" deep)
So much done! The quilts are really wonderful. You really got them together fast.
ReplyDeleteThe new bowl is spectacular. It looks like marble.
Three incredible finishes! Those quilts will be much loved and oh my on that bowl! It is incredible. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThat bowl would make a GREAT yarn bowl.
ReplyDeleteOh my, the bowl is fabulous, and a nice size, too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bowl! That's going to be one BIG fabulous quilt!
