| My Log Cabin Quilt in Furrow Configuration, 43 x 43" finished! |
Hello Quilt Friends from the valley where we are enjoying warmer temperatures and projects are being moved forward and finishes are happening!
I finished sewing the binding down onto my Log Cabin Quilt in Furrow Configuration, it's hand quilted with #8 Perle cotton in Topaz, and measures 43" x 43". This one will be a gift.
Then I bravely pulled out my quilt top Barn Raising Medallion with Borders, started about 5 yr.s ago. I was studying Gwen Marston's books Liberated Quiltmaking ll and Liberated Medallion Quilts, published by AQS, and working on 1/2 square triangles and borders. Borders add lots of color and design interest right? I measured/cut out batting and pieced a backing for my Barn Raising Medallion quilt top last week. Next will be pin basting and starting on hand quilting.
Then after all the hard work, I was ready for relaxation and inspiration, which I found in abundance at Linda's Koka Quilts. I got my color fix and tons of inspiration and technique tips, thank you Linda!
And that is the news from the compound, where life is good!
What are you moving forward or finishing this week?
I'll be by to visit.
