Twister Finished

The pictures are seriously bad. The top is seriously cool. Can't wait to quilt it.

This week I'm working on a UFO. I figure one new, one old. Then maybe I really will finish some stuff.

Have a great week.

Design Wall Monday

While towels were stitching on the embroidery machine, I was able to do some sewing.

This is what's on my wall.  It will have another border of twisters on the outside.  I have the borders sewn, just need to cut and sew again.

Happy sewing!!!

Finishes

Yeah for me, two more finishes. After looking in the closest that I have all of my finished quilt tops in, I realized, I have some serious quilting to get done. My hope is to get 2 tops a month quilted. Pretty lofty goal, which is doable in the winter, not so much for the summer months. Maybe I can get ahead while it's cold. Anyhow...

I finished the Lil Twister baby quilt for my friend. I'm going to get it in the mail today so that it can be enjoyed by a little one.

The fabric for the back is probably more Easter-ish, but it was fun to use. I'm game to get some of the yardage pieces out of the stash.

I don't even know when I finished this top. It's been quite awhile. I started quilting it and didn't like the pattern I picked so I picked and picked and picked. Finally, it's done.

Grace insists that I learn to knit. I've tried and it's not something that comes easy for me. So on Friday in an effort to get away from my desk, I ran to the store that I have a love/hate relationship with coupons in hand. I bought a variety pack of the plastic looms. My first attempt at knitting - a hat.

Behind me is my absolute favorite baby picture of Grace (now 7).  She is in my husband's arms.  Brandi does such AWESOME work.

National Quilting Day

I started with these, made from charm squares.

Then I used my Lil Twister.

And ended up these little beauties.

I love the Twister templates that I got. Mary mentioned them on her blog and I couldn't contain myself. The whole thing goes together very quickly.

For this pinwheel top, I used the Big Twister. My original piece of fabric was made from 10" squares (layer cakes).
