Ta daaaaa!

This quilt turned out even better than I expected. I thought along the way that it might be too dark, but in the end, I think it’s just right.

The allover quilting worked well on the busy fabrics and showed up nicely on the border and back.

I used leftover backing fabric for the binding. Please excuse my lint. 🤦🏻♀️

It is 60 by 72 inches. A big thank you to Ila for sharing these lovely fabrics with me. 😊

Have a great day!
I’ve remained focused on this project and the end is in sight. It’s on the frame and quilting has begun.

This is the pantograph that I’m using.

Looking good so far.

This quilt has no destination yet. In time, it will tell me where it wants to go.
Also, sorry about my confusing “Test” post yesterday. I was trying to figure something out here.
Have a great day!
……my previous Test post. Trying to figure something out on WordPress.
But here is a pretty picture for your trouble. 😄

Have a lovely day!
I mentioned that the quilt I’m working on was inspired by ind I made years ago. I found a photo to share with you.

I think that one is about 25 years old. Here are the blocks for the current version.

Lots of work is needed on the layout yet.
Have a great day!
I started making bow tie blocks to go with the sawtooth stars I shared yesterday.

I hope to get a good size throw quilt out of this. I like to make them about 60” by 72”.
I used dies 11.1 and 12.1 from the AccuQuilt 12” Companion Set. – Corners as well as Die 3 from the 12” Qube.

I made a quilt many years ago with sawtooth stars and bow ties and have always wanted to make another.

Back to work! Have a great day!

I started something new. Remember those lovely pink and brown fabrics that a friend recently gifted me?

Well, they’ve been chopped! And piecing has begun.

I used dies 1, 2, 3, and 4 from the AccuQuilt 12” Qube.

More to come. Stay tuned.

Are you ready? We are hiking the Gray Fox Trail at the White Tank Mountain Regional Park. It is one of my most favorite places on earth.

I don’t know what this bird is, but she has a lovely song!

Desert Marigolds are beautiful as well.

Oh, how I wish these old Saguaros could talk! The history they have seen!

I love how the light filters through the spines of the cholla. They look so soft and fuzzy…..let me assure you, they are not! You’ll need pliers to get them out of your shoes or flesh!

Here’s a closer look.

I love the endless variety here!

How crazy is this?

You never know what you will find along the way.

Happy trails!

I hung this quilt hanger in my sewing room this week. I love this style because you don’t need a sleeve for your quilt and they are so easy to change out.

The skies have been lovely this week!

Daughter #2 has been letting me ride her bike. Such fun!

Another puzzle finish.

The mister’s roses have been glorious!

I saw this on a recent walk in my neighborhood. I know the spiders here can get big, but this is ridiculous!

Have a great day!
