Turning 20 Again is finished



Well I promised another photo when my Turning 20 Again quilt was finished and it is so here is the picture. I went by Jen's last night and got it on the frame with a little help from her. It took me about 2 hours to quilt it and that was with stopping a few times to sit and to pet Holly. I really like the way it turned out. I came home and worked on the binding and just finished it up. Now it's on to finishing a few more projects. I'm really happy with the quilting I did. No thread breaks at all. The binding is perfect and I really enjoyed the hand sewing of the binding. Well I'm off to another Dr's appointment. Maybe there is some more sewing in my future for tonight.

Turning Twenty Again Top is Finished





I finished another top today and that makes me really happy. Last Sunday I started with a batch of 1/2 yard pieces from Moda called Bistro. I've had these fabrics for a while and just wasn't sure what to do with them. I tossed so many ideas around for months and not knowing what to make was driving me crazy. in I finally decided on doing a Turning Twenty Again quilt. I finished it early in the week but still needed to buy fabric for the borders so I got that yesterday. Since my plans for tonight fell through I went ahead and put the borders on the top. I already have the binding made so next it's just pick out a backing from my stash and get her on the quilt frame. I really do like the fabric colors and it was such a simple quilt top to make. Too bad I'm not a coffee drinker but I still like the quilt.
