I've been rather hit or miss with quilting for the past 2-3 weeks. I finished a top in sort of a crumb style, with squarish blocks made of leftover strips in blues/purples/greens. The blocks are set in a bright yellow background, finished off with a blue border. I'm hoping to finish this weekend and give the quilt to my church, to distribute to someone going through tough times.
I also finished the top for Chapel Window, made from Musical Chairs blocks seen in a previous post, set in an Attic Windows layout. I surrounded the stained glass-looking panes with marbled grays in dark, medium light and very light to suggest a stone or marble church. Tonight I began doing a little machine quilting. I hope to finish that project this weekend, as well.
Pictures and details about both quilts coming soon.
Thanks for visiting my blog. I hope you'll enjoy reading about my quilts and travels. I make lots of quilts, many as gifts, some for charity, and a few on commission. I love to travel and I own a car, but I am afraid to drive in heavy traffic. So I often use public transportation to visit big cities. I don't just go on trips--I have adventures!
