Finishing......
I finished the quilting on the large piece yesterday. You may have seen this on my sidebar as my current favorite. I had a small repair I needed to do on one block and I laid it aside for months. The repair took 15 minutes; the roadblock in my brain couldn't see that. This piece is about 36" x 47" and the small ones which I made 2 days ago are around 20" x 24". This large one is Crooked Cobblestones 1. Number 2 is finished and was shown here. I started quilting on number 3 which is the largest last night. It is shown here when I was spray basting it. The fourth large one is a cross which had some construction problems. I fixed that last night too so it is ready to baste and quilt. You can see from this post that I let it hang on a hanger for almost 3 years before I fixed it. I guess the promise of a show of my quilts is finally getting me in gear.

Lovely , every one a winner
Funny how a repair is so much more stressful than making the quilt originally. I suffer from that also.
Fabulous....all of them. You should be getting excited and working hard for your showing. Can't wait!!
I completely understand (!!!) what you describe as your mental roadblock ... congrats for getting over a couple of yours!
I'm so happy that your work is going to be shown -- for those of us who cannot get there in person, I hope someone takes LOTS of photos and video to share.
I love all of these, the colors are striking and so is the arrangement of the blocks.

These pieces are all beautiful. I love how you arranged the blocks. Send some of that productiveness my way, please!!
Stunning quilts! I alway work better with a deadline too.
They are wandaful!
There's nothing like a deadline for motivation!
Your cobblestone continue to be one of my ALL TIME favorites, they are just so dreamy and unique. I will make one!
BTW my daffodils are coming up. Does this mean an early Spring? I am sure not an early spring but a cold winter for the daffodils. LOL The warm weather is making things sprout. I hope not too many get damaged.
On word. Gorgeous!
It's amazing! I'm glad you finally took the time to fix the block. Every time I have a lot of chores to do that I've been putting off I use a timer - I set it for 15 minutes and I only have to work on it for that long. It's surprising how much I can get done in 15 minutes!
I just wish I could be there to see all your beautiful work live and in person! Each is truly a work of art.
you are so very talented--these great quilts seem to pop up with ease! You are a favorite--'break a leg' with your show!!
These are so awesome, I love these crooked cobblestone quilts!
This collection is awesome. Especially when you see them together. I Love Them.
They are all wonderful. Isn't it funny what we put off forever and yet it only takes minutes?
I love your cobblestone quilts Wanda, and the QOV quilts turned out nicely.
funny how our brain can slow us down that way...loving this, Wanda! exquisite!
