Your quilt is ready!

This is the phrase I say a lot during the course of a week. It can come in a phone message, email, text, or today in my blog post.  Then I ask to schedule a time and day for customers to come at pick up their finished quilt. Of course they usually still need to do the binding so it’s not truly finished without the binding.

This is Connie’s mystery quilt. The quilting design is called Fluid Meander by Kristen Hoftyzer (giving credit to the digital designer), batting is Quilters Dream Select and she chose a yellow thread. Another pretty quilt by Connie, oh & Connie, your quilt is ready. 🙂

Pretty in Pastels

I just love this pretty buttery pastel collection of fabrics. The simple piecing shows off the fabrics so well. The quilting design on Kelly’s quilt is Floral by TKQ. The backing is a white Minkie fabric, Hobbs 80/20 batting with teal thread.  Enjoy this spring treat!

Off the machine today

Finished up today are Lori’s quilts. I posted a sneak peek yesterday but here are some better photos of her quilts.

I’m also trying to match up some fabric to projects.  I really need to take care of the ‘what the heck was I going to make with that?” pile. Now if I could just remember….

Weekend Away

I was out of town this weekend visiting my daughter in Illinois. I don’t get to see her often enough. We thought it was going to be a warm weekend when I first made arrangements but it turned out to be cold & wet stay in our trailer. Its hard to live so far apart, although I know this is the new norm for many families.

I’m back home now & back to work on the quilts I have in house. I’m working on Lori B’s quilts. The pink quilt has an uneven chevron design for quilting & the blue quilt has Ginger Spring design by Apricot Moon. Both quilts have Hobbs 80/20 batting.
