I wanted to stop in to let everyone know I'm still sewing up a storm. In the last week I made one quilt top from Turning Twenty Again. All it needs are it's borders and then the quilting and binding done. I picked up the border fabric yesterday now I just need to put it on. I also have been working really hard on one of my UFO's. This is ready to have the backing pieced and then I can put it on the frame and quilt away. I have the bindings made already for both quilts. I just keep on sewing as if I'm obsessed. The next project up is a scrap quilt which will be a first for me. As soon as I get the cutting directions I'm ready to cut and start piecing.
The picture is of the UFO done completely in Southwestern fabrics. I bought this fabric 10 years ago while on a trip to Arizona to visit my sister Karen. Jen and Mike were engaged and I knew I wanted to make them a quilt for a wedding present. They both liked Southwestern colors so I chose these to make an unconventional double wedding ring quilt. I had purchsed so much fabric that not only did I make the wedding quilt but I had tons left over. It sat in my stash for years and since my bedroom has a somewhat Southwestern theme I decided to use it for my quilt. The flying geese panels had been made and just sitting so the other night I dug it all out and didn't go to bed until the top was finished. I promise a picture when it's completed with quilting and it's binding attatched.
