yankiequilter Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Yeah, Tonilyn, you are F-A-S-T !!! Alas, still no strips for me. I am expecting a carrier pigeon to fly over any day now and drop my bundle into the yard with a little parachute attached to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ffq-lar Posted January 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Yes, Tonilyn is quick! Remember though, you can still win if you can get a top together in less time than she did. I think she completed her top in four days!!! On your mark-get set-GO!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aktbone Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 My completed project: Bailey Island Hobo Bag by Aunties Two Patterns (with several changes to the pattern) I used 38 of the original strips from the swap; added fabric from my stash for the handle, inside pocket and binding; and used scrap batting for the tubes and handles. With the other 4 strips that did not work in the color way, I constructed a "Zippie Bag." This was such a fun project. Looking forward to doing one again.

PattyJo Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I'm still working on my quilt top and I'm designing it as I go, well designing may be a bit to energetic of a word,but I'm trying to add fabrics from my stash along with all the strips to make a KING (Yikes) size quilt. I hope to be able to post pics in the next day or two, but too much life is getting in my way. I'm resigned that I won't be the fastest to get a top together but I'm sure enjoying getting a quilt for me done! And thank you Linda for putting this together. You are a sweetheart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 WOW that was fast Tonilyn! Looks great!!! I'm still cutting fabric yet! The quilt I am planning will be queen - king size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s.waits Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 My top is almost finished! I only need to add the borders this evening and it will be ready to quilt. Yea! This has been a lot of fun, gettin to see what everyone else has in their stash, or available in their area. Now I need some suggestions on quilting this baby. I have a couple of ideas for the "flowers", but I'm not sure about the areas between. Any ideas?

Beachside Quilter Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 LOVE it, Sharon! What pattern is this??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s.waits Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 It's from a book on jelly roll quilts. I'll check when I get home in a little while and let you know the name of the pattern and the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonnie H Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 Oh, my, what pretty colors! I was under the mistaken impression the swap was for Christmas colors and I knew I didn't have any of those in my stash. Shucks, I could have played. Sorry, no ideas for you, but I loved seeing your quilt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
