Q2 Finish Along Roundup

Not my best showing this quarter. I had four projects on the roster:

1. My Spring Bloom project, which I did finish:
And...BLOOM!_

2. A long-ago-pieced quilt top that I wanted to get quilted. Success!! This is its post.

It finished at about 50" x 60" and I quilted it on a longarm. I'm so happy that it's not sitting unfinished anymore!

More photos are in my Flickr stream, here.

Items 3 and 4 (Jeweled Squares and my Gee's Bend mini) aren't done. Instead, I finished a whole lot of other stuff, including:

A mini quilt to practice stitching on the longarm. I cut up a so-old-it-is-practically-vintage FQ bundle of Tina Givens fabric and pieced it in a really simple patchwork arrangement.

Different quilting in each square. That bottom right design is done with a ruler. So cool!

And the notebook covers for teacher gifts blogged here.

All in all, not a bad quarter. Stay tuned for my Q3 goals. Better yet, make some of your own and join in on the Finish Along!

  5. Beautiful quilts, especially your Selfie - it is absolutely awsome!

    I have mentioned your Selfie Quilt in my blog as a good example when I introduced my own playing with Sumo Paint image processing program - work in progress.
