About This Blog

I have decided to add another blog to post about my quilt projects. I have been working on some quilt projects lately. Many of these, I have had the fabric and instructions laying around for a year or more.

I recently pieced the top of one called "Garden Nine Patch" in lavendar, beige and dark purple. It is at the machine quilter's now. it is 85 by 102 inches.

Next I did the Thimbleberries Club 2005 Block of the Month. Two small quilts were to be made. I finished the one called "Sunset" and took it in to be quilted. I just finished piecing the one called "Sunrise" today. I will take this to the quilter on Monday.

I had purchased some fat quarters in Hawaii a year ago. I have cut them to make four 12 inch squares. I put white between the squares and around the edge. I also made a smaller one that is 9 inch squares. I am undecided on the quilting of these two. I may hand quilt around the flowers on these.

Next I am going to work on a Christmas one that I have laying around. After that, I may finish the 2004 Thimbleberries Club. This was a hard one to begin quilting so I put it away for awhile until I could get more practice.

Will post photos after I get them back and have put the binding on them.
