Design Wall Monday

...or, Return of the Green Quilt. This is what's on my design wall today, another green quilt. This would be #6 in the green series. I thought I was finished with the green scraps but while I was visiting Nancy in Oregon, I kept thinking of green (Oregon is very green...) So at the Stitchin' Post quilt shop in Sisters, OR, I purchased 13 green fat quarters. Together with the green scraps I had leftover, I started this quilt. The rows haven't all been sewn together and they are a little off. The lower right side is finished and should give you an idea of the finished product. I should have this finished in a couple of days. I have a couple of more ideas for green scraps, so this is not the end of green quilts for me. I think I may need a 12 step program...

The Monday after I returned from Oregon, Tamara was kind enought to press my scraps for me so I could cut them up. Now I can't get the scrap drawers shut so I'll be knocking out a few scrap quilts until things are under control.

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.
