Baby Quilt - Circles (Finish-a-long)

So today I completed my first finish for this Quarter of the Finish-a-long.  This quilt was designed and quilted by me.  For the quilting I did straight lines down the length of the quilt.

I was able to gift the quilt to the mother-to-be today and she was surprised and excited to use it.

Finish-a-long

This quarter I plan to participate in the Finish-a-long hosted by She Can Quilt.

This is my closet with many of my UFO's.












Here is what I plan to work on.

 #1 Baby Quilt - Needs Binding and Label


#2 Baby Quilt - Needs Binding and a Label

#3 Baby Quilt - Needs Binding and Label

#4 Doll Quilt - Needs Binding

#5, 6 & 7 - Need to find backing, quilt, bind and label all three

#8 Doll Quilt - Needs Binding

#8 Baby Quilt - This little gem needs the Binding finished and a label.  Then it will be off to its new home with a baby girl who is due soon.

Those are my items for the Finish-a-long.  Wonder how many will be finished.

Happy 4th of July

With the 4th of July quickly approaching and Canada Day currently occurring I thought I would offer a promo code to my ETSY store.  Through July 6th use code IndependenceDay for 15% off purchases of $15.00+.

This week I am working to complete a top based on the Sister's Choice pattern by Bonnie Hunter.  I am not actually following the pattern, but winging it based on a friends top I saw last month.

So far I have 42 blocks complete.  I planned to make a twin sized quilt, so theoretically I am done....but I have changed my mind and now have 14 more blocks to make.



That's it for now. Thanks for stopping by.
