Gift Quilt Completely Finished


This if officially the crinkliest quilt I've ever made!  It absolutely ripples with quiltiness.  I think it shrunk 6" both ways from the quilting, washing, and drying.  Good thing it started out a good size!

I put the borders on Emily's similar quilt and pieced the backing today.  That will be my next quilting project.  Rachel has already ironed the binding for me, so I'm good to go!

Julie's Small Stars


Julie is one of my e-friends.  She just bought $100 worth of fabric from me.  I read her blog daily.  She is working on a quilt made of little star blocks (these measure 4")...so I made a few to send with her box of fabric.  Hope she is surprised!  Pleasantly surprised, that is.
