Background

This is a quilt that I made a couple years ago and just got quilted.  I bought the fabric in the border and came home, determined not to buy anymore fabric.  I wanted to use only fabric from my stash.  I got carried away and finished the quilt top in about a week.

Me with my selvedge bag

4-patch in a square

This was a quilt I started working on as a leader/ender quilt.  Then it was spotted
by a quilt guild when I did a program on "what to do with scraps".  So we
decided to do it as a block exchange.  Over 9 months we traded these
little 5" blocks.  I'm still making them and adding rows as I go along.  I'd like
to make it big enough for a king-sized bed.  I think I might already have enough now.

I want to make this again. Simple string quilt.

Not quite finished

This is the first block in the Sue Spargo BOM this year.  I have already started the bullion stitches all over the flower, but they were not done yet in this picture.

More of the wool Primitive Garden quilt (bottom)


Notice the writing on the background of the block on top.  I designed that fabric on spoonflower.com.

The start of a new quilt--always fun!
