Time to link up with all the other lovely finishes. I laid out my hopes for the quarter here - one apron, three quilts and a cushion.
And amazingly, despite having done almost no sewing for the past month (because of pesky health stuff and a complete kitchen remodel) I completed four out of five!
I've previously blogged about the memory quilt I made my aunt, and the Starburst quilt I made for my friend's wedding. Both were well received which was great.
I also finished the apron for the Crafty Cooks Apron & recipe swap which was great fun and good to do something different.
My final finish is a quilt for my Mother-in-law, Jill. When she came to stay at Christmas she asked if I would make her a quilt so I said I'd do it as a birthday present.
We have totally different tastes in fabric so this quilt is much softer and more muted than others I've made but I'm really pleased with how it turned out. I used a jelly roll of Athill Range by Cabbages & Roses and quilted it in a loopy design using a Gutermann variegated thread.
It was finished in time for her birthday at the beginning of June but it still hasn't made it to the post office (hangs head in shame)!
So all in all I'm very pleased. I'm not joining in with Q3 because of the pesky health stuff but I may be back for Q4.
Bye for now
Sarah
You did do well this quarter, four out of five is impressive!
ReplyDeleteHope the pesky health stuff doesn't cramp your style too much.
