I’ve been waiting for this day! AccuQuilt is launching a new die! I’ve had my hands on it for a while now. Click here to register for today’s AccuQuilt Live program to see what it is! Then head back over here to see what I did with it.

See you soon!

It’s binding time!

I don’t know where this print came from, but it is perfect for this quilt.

I hope to finish this hand stitching today so I can share this finish with you soon.

As far as Winslow is concerned, it’s done enough.

Have a great day!

Here is another installment of QuiltCon pics. So much inspiration!

Have a great day!

QuiltCon was such a great experience! I’ll be sharing some of my favorite quilts over several posts. Artist info follows each photo.

I was so excited to meet Janet! She’s a blog reader and fellow snowbird, spending her winter in Mesa. Quilters are the nicest people!

Also, AccuQuilt has a program today so you can see even more. Click here for details and to register for prizes.

Have a great day!

I decided to move ahead with my fabric choice for this leader/ender project. I appreciate all of your comments. You were right, use the good stuff! I’ll figure out the back later.

I have 6 12 inch blocks done so far. This will be limited in size by the amount of blue background fabric that I have.

There is certainly no shortage of scrappy squares!

Hmmmm…..

Have a great day!

My strips have all been sewn and subcut.

Blocks are being made. I almost need sunglasses for this!

I’ve made enough to play a bit at the design wall. I can see already that this will be the hardest part.

I still have plenty of blocks to piece.

Have a great day!

I have had this jelly roll hanging around for a long time.

I was in the mood for bright colors and something quick. This fit the bill. I’m pairing this with some orange yardage. Wow! That’s bright!

I used this die to cut up more strips.

I made some strip sets.

I used the same strip die to sub cut my strip sets.

To be continued….

Have a great day!

Bambi was checking out my progress!

And I have made progress! Though I’m not sure if you can see it.

The next photo was the best I could do to capture the texture.

I’m about 70% done at this point. I’d forgotten how fast it goes when doing this type of utility quilting. The thread is actually ecru, but I tweaked the photo so the stitches would show and now the thread looks very dark.

See that unquilted bit in the middle? That is all I have left!

Maybe next Sunday, I’ll be working on the binding.

Have a great day!
