Quilt Tops



I have been working on putting together my Churn Dash and Stars quilt. I have the blocks sewn together and now I need to add the borders. I have enjoyed making this quilt. I did struggle a bit because I was trying to make it scrappy I cut the blocks as I went along rather than all at once.









I got the top done for the Pinwheels and Rails quilt a while ago and now I have been working on the borders for it. My daughter decided she wanted it on her bed so I have been adding extra borders to make it bigger. Even though, the small block border was time consuming I am happy that I did it and happy with the way it looks.

Stolen Kisses - Friday Night Sew-In




 For Mother's Day, I got this fabric and pattern. It has been a long time since I have made something completely from one collection but when I walked in to my quilting store I was immediately drawn to them both. Years ago, I made a Twister quilt out of the Blush collection by Basic Grey My husband had taken me to the shop to get a gift certificate and I ended up getting it and all of this fabric.





I spent the Friday Night Sew-In starting to sew all of the half square triangles. There are six group of colours and the first thing to be done is to get them sorted and then sewn in the half square triangles. I worked on some more yesterday and day so I probably have about half of them done now. It is fun to work on a project where all you need to do is sew.
