Wishing for spring to arrive, I have finished two quilts to decorate the house. Both are made using quilt-as-you-go technique.
The blue linen tabletop is 20" * 21", using Quilters Dream Select (cotton) batting. It is quilted on one piece of batting, starting with the 4 center pieces at the same time, and building the courthouse step blocks in parallel. The last three logs are folded over to finish it up (white cross in the picture above).
The spring forward into spring wall quilt / lap quilt is 57" * 82" and quilted on Quilters Dream Poly (polyester) batting.
They really bring some expectations of greener days into the living room!

I am happy with both of them. The bigger one is a bit of challenge to keep squared up as you work on it. It is not completely flat, but has a relaxed, worn look already...Wishing all of you ladies a great day on the 8th of march!
