finished tops

Two finished tops: added white sashing to the Scrappy Christmas Swap and decided to go with the blue fabric for the inner border on my Bonnie's Stars.

Thank you all for your votes on this last one. I still like both options, but made my decision to go for the blue.



October is a bit wet and windy this weekend. Nice weather for inside projects... Enjoy the rest of the weekend!

Both turned out great, Marit!

It's moving weekend in my house; daughter and grandson are finally moving into their new apartment. They have been waiting for almost two months for their new landlord to get rid of cockroaches. Nice...

Now it's time for reading your book, and some serious quilting again!

I love the graphic and orderly quality of the first quilt.

I think the blue really ties it all together on the second one.

I love your scrappy Christmas quilt and I agree with the blue inner border on your Bonnie Stars quilt. I really enjoyed your comments on your Kaffe class. That does sound like an intense and exciting class to take.
