Wow, Another Completion

I am very pleased to say that I have a completion.


Here it is  when I first loaded it on the HQ.


Here I was about 1/3 of the way done with the quilting.


And here it is all done.


It is a completely scrap quilt. I made this quilt and 3 more like it from just stash.
The only thing I have purchased for these quilts is the flannel backing. Which  I forgot to take a picture of. I will be better with the next one I complete.  This quilt has already been washed and delivered.

This is all for this week.

I Have Two Completions

I am happy to say that I have two completions to show today.


I have finished quilting the baby quilt that has been on my HQ for a while.


I had some problems and tried many different things to fix the shredding thread on top. Finally I took off the thread and replaced it some other thread and it worked just fine. What a frustrating week for this little baby quilt. But now it is done and I am washing it to get it ready to go next week.


This is my hand applique that I have finally finished. It has been almost a year since I started it.


I have another wall hanging that is almost completed but I need to hand sew some beads on before I can hang it on my wall.

That is all for this week.

Hey, Some More Progress

I have a few completions.



This is the spool wall hanging I have made from Jenny Doan's tutorial. I thought I was making it longer but I think this looks just fine. This wall is just behind my HQ and has been almost completely blank since I moved down to my quilt studio a couple of years ago. I think these will make a nice addition to my room.


This is my LeMoyne star I made from my Craftsy class with Laura Nownes. I love the look of this block but I would never make a whole quilt from this star. It is too stressful. This is hanging on my wall also.

I have more that are completed but I will show them later when I have them all on my wall.

I have this on my design wall.


Yes, I know it is only one block but this is a start of my youngest grandson's quilt. These are leftovers from my Smith Mountain Morning quilt and so I want to put these to good use. I will be teaming these with orange and white rails as the alternate block. His birthday is coming up in July.



This is what I have on my HQ. It was going to be a charity baby quilt but now I will be giving it to a friend of my son's who had their first baby this year. I will do very simple quilting on this baby quilt.

Well, this is all for now. I will update later on my progress.
