Welcome to my blog

Please don't remind me that I'm poor; I'm having too much fun pretending I'm simply "living green" like everyone else these days.

Another quilt finished

It's taken awhile but the next quilt is done.  It's a sampler quilt.



Sampler quilts are sometimes difficult for me because I have to think of a new design for every block.  I'll show you the border design first.


I put a bow on the center of each border then went out from that in both directions for the feather design.  This is how all the sides end at the corners.



On the corner stones I did a flower then a leave vine to the center of each of the sashing strips.



These are the twelve different blocks and the design I did on them.















































So that's what I've been doing the last couple of days.  The next quilt is on the machine getting stabelized.  I need to get it finished and in the mail by Monday but tomorrow I'm having company and over the weekend Ladybug will take most of my time.  Which leaves only today and Friday to get it finished.   Can you guess where I'll be the next few days?

The quilting on this quilt is just gorgeous-- especially the borders. It goes from a nice traditional quilt to real artwork.

You did a lot of work on that quilt.
Love what you did on each square, you made each square stand out! Beautiful work.
