It's been a busy summer, with a lot of business travel, so not a lot of time for quilting, but I finished a couple of quilts that started last year. The quilt above is from a block of the month from my local quilt shop, called "Tisket a Tasket." I pretty much followed the directions, but had to adjust the setting instructions for the on point border blocks; the math was just off. Local Longarmer Maria Hall did a fabulous job on the quilting; I can't get enough of the quilting feathers. I hope you can see it in the photos.
The other quicky quilt I finished was a donation quilt for our Guild's Covers for Kids. Our friendship group did jumbo disappearing 9-patch quilts, and I did mine with large I-spy fabrics, with this quilt geared for an elementary age boy. My friend Donna King did a great job with the quilting. This one has already been delivered to the Guild for donation. This makes 5 I-spys that I have made so far, and I'm working on another one for my niece.
My other current project is the Row Along from Lori Holt's Row along, and I'm on the 7th row. (I'm substituting Sophie's birds for the mugs that were suggested. I also have my eclipse blocks to cut to size and assemble, and putting the border on my Millions of Cats quilt. So progress is underway!
Great job! I had to change the final border because I only have double beds - no queens. I keep trying to decide about quilting because I do not want any feathers on it and that seems to be what everyone is putting in the white spaces.
