September 2025 Monthly recap....................


Big and small, but 2 finishes anyway.  The 16 patch on the left is all Marcia Derse fabric, both front and back.  It is 78" x 95".  On the right, a double 4 patch, is Kaffe collective and Martha Negley fabric and is 40" x 59.5".


I only completed one top, and that's fine with me.  I'm gaining on finished vs. started.

This one is all Kaffe collective fabric.  I was trying to use up some green triangles which I had overcut for a previous project.  It was fun adding the Brandon Mably plaid in this one.  It is 54" x 69".


I finished one small project, a batik 16 patch table runner.  These were all orphan blocks, leftovers from previous projects.

It was a good productive month since I also made decisions on some other projects, hopefully finishes for October.

Now, for my own records I need to post the stats of this recent finish.


The new bride and groom (my grandson) stopped by yesterday and got this big quilt up on my design walls so I could take the photos.  It is prettier than this photo since the camera has given it a blue/green tone.  It has 80/20 Hobbs batting in it and was quilted by Robin Diaz.



I cut up an allover print by Marcia Derse for some alternate blocks to mix in with the 16 patches.  


The back is another allover print by Marcia.  Both sides of this quilt are interesting.

WOW such a beautiful B I G quilt you've finished!! Great work on this one...i do love that zig-zag piece, too; great colors--very fresh looking with those greens and the B&W's.
Only 52 here early morning when i left for weekly food shopping--and super windy--that cold front is sweeping on down here over us...leaves swirling about all over now as they are so dried out...
Hugs, [from hold on to your hat!] Julierose

I always admire what you manage to finish each month be they quilts, tops, or smaller projects and stand in awe. If you can bottle a tad of your spare energy, please do send it my way. Thank you!
Lucky newlyweds! They chose wisely, grasshopper!

Hugs!

16 Patch ~ double 4 patch delightfully full of your traditional ‘Exuberant’ fabrics ~ green zig zag has such a refreshing appeal with the black and white checkered fabric for extra fun. Great finishes for September 2025…

You did have a very productive month and used up some over cuts and orphan blocks in the process. Wow!
