March 2024 Monthly recap


 It was another good month for finishes, 6 for March.  I quilted 3 of them and Robin Diaz quilted 3 for me. Top left, Autumn Coneflower 2 is 62.5" x 78".  Below it is Marcia Derse Stars which is 65" x 80". Second column top is Flannel Pinwheels which is 58" x 70".  Below it is Bright Flannel, 53" x 71".  Next is Sunlight in the Forest, 67.5" x 87" and last is Flannel Hugs and Kisses, 57" x 82.5".  That was a lot of big backings to prepare and 3 of the quilts have hand stitched bindings.


Only one quilt top was completed and it was a fast and fun one.  The pattern is Spa Quads, a free pattern from Windham fabrics and the fabric is 2 lines of fabric from designer e bond, Root and Ravel.  It is 60" x 80".

For the first quarter of the year I had 13 finishes and 11 quilt tops sewn.

I have a quilt top in progress from February to work on now plus making more batik 9 patches to use some of the 100s of batik 2" strips in 2 boxes.

You certainly have made a lot of progress in your "Finishing Spree"!!:))))
44 and cloudy here--a rainstorm is brewing, we hear, for us today and tomorrow and into Wednesday...[Tom's busy with plans for building an "ark"].

We are resting up after all the weekend's activity...hugs, Julierose

Applause, applause and well done, you! I seem to spend too much time thinking, wondering, and planning whereas you make wonderfully quick and excellent decisions and get going. I will try to follow your good example!

Hugs!
