I finally got this quilt top all nice and pieced and just have to baste now which I keep putting off because that would mean cleaning my kitchen floor:)
It has a bunch of my current favorite fabrics in there and I love quilts with black.
And then I finally attacked my Warm/Cool quilt with binding. I just have to hand sew it down and that'll be ready to go. *shhh* but it has gotten a fair amount of use around here even unfinished.;)
It was a difficult decision to go with a cool binding instead of warm. But the flannel backing is in the pink family so it needed to be cooled down.
With sick kiddos this week I have hardly been able to look at my machine but I did manage to sneak some sessions in to make the hubster a birthday pillow. "You've never made me anything." he said awhile back. Hmmm I guess if you don't count the lap quilts and pillows we curl up with when we watch movies or the huge quilt on our bed. Anyways any excuse to get quilting!
Your pillow is absolutely awesome!
ReplyDeleteThanks!! It looks cute on the couch.:)
DeleteBeautiful quilt! I wish I had the patience to do all of that...I've been working on the same quilt off and on since 2003. I can't believe I'm admitting that. Anyway, great job!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts - I love HSTs lately and have plans for 2 or three projects using them (plans, heh - we'll see how long it takes!)
ReplyDeleteI think all of them are gorgeous! I find myself snuggling under projects I am still working on from time to time, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the name of the pattern for your HSQ quilt?
