Finishes

Design Wall Monday

The ONLY good thing about cold weather
is....
I don't feel as bad about the time I 
spend sewing!
:)

This week I have a Finish
AND 
I dug out a quilt I started a while ago.

This past week I picked this quilt up from my
Long Arm Quilter and I finished sewing the binding
on it Sunday afternoon.


My Christmas "Blind Man's Fancy."
I might call this one "Christmas Fancy."
 

This has to be near the top of my
favorites list.
And to think I was about to give up on finishing it!


The quilting is difficult to see, but my quilter did a
WONDERFUL job on this quilt.

I will put this away to use at Christmas.


Now I am continuing the work on a quilt I started a few months ago.

A quilting friend of mine, Linda, has made some
BEAUTIFUL green and purple quilts
and this inspired me.
I found a pattern I really liked in
 Edyta Sitar's book, 
Friendship Triangles
called
"Garden Path Quilt."

I thought this would be so pretty in purples and greens,
so the collecting began.

Here is what I have done so far...


 
A little over half of the blocks are finished,
but I am deciding if I'm going to make it large enough
to fit on a queen sized bed. 
This would look GREAT in my guest room!

Please visit Patchwork Times to be inspired by the
beautiful quilts
and
Happy Quilting!
