Double Delight!

I finished this quilt last month but I couldn't show it because it was a surprise gift for Nancy. I gave it to her last Tuesday so now I can post the pictures. The pattern is called Double Delight and it is a mystery quilt from Bonnie Hunter's website, Quiltville.com. I discovered the pattern after the mystery was over. I don't usually work in a color scheme like this but I just couldn't get it out of my mind so I had to make it. Nancy loves it! It will go on the bed in her guest room.

Another green quilt finished!

Here's the finished top. It's folded in half to fit on the design wall. Measurements are 68 x 80. I think I am finished making green scrap quilts. I can't say I'm finished with green completely because I'm in the middle of a Carpenter's Square in what color? Green! I love green. I have to say I'm very happy with the way this one turned out.

Storm at Sea

John Flynn's website has posted a photo of the Storm at Sea quilt that Tamara pieced and I quilted. Here's a link: http://www.flynnquilt.com/workshop/gallery/. Scroll to the bottom of the page.

Green Quilt

Here is what I worked on this weekend, Green Quilt top. I can only fit half of it on my design wall at once. The size is a large full. Next I'll finish the second green quilt and post a picture.

Storm at Sea

One of the projects that's been keeping me busy is this Storm at Sea quilt that I quilted for Tamara. This is from a class she took at Houston with John Flynn. The quilt is only 22"x30". The kit was precut with a laser making it super easy to sew accurately. It was a pleasure to quilt, too. Tamara has entered this quilt in the Marin County Fair. I'll post the results when I get them.

Tamara's BOM

I am finally caught up on my block of the month. First shown is April's Brasstown Star. The pattern can be found here.

Second is May's Morning Star 2. The pattern can be found here.

And last, June's Amish Star. The pattern can be found here.

I'm glad to be caught up. Other projects have been keeping me busy and I'll blog about them as soon as I can.

Fonthill Quilt

I have been busily finishing green quilts so I would have room to start quilting this top. I finished this two summers ago and I am finally getting it quilted. It will be in the Santa Rosa show and at the Marin County Fair, so I have to get it finished by June 3. Yikes! It's full size, too! This will be all I work on for the next two weeks. Thank goodness for Memorial Day.


Another reason not much has been getting done, a short trip to Yosemite Valley, courtesy of my brother and his wife. This was the view from our room at the Ahwahnee Hotel (I was sharing with my mom.)
