I have another quilt on my Millie very much like Mary's and will finish that this morning. Having fun cause it has "some" fullness I have to hide. You know you can quilt that out!

 

Hope everyone is having a great day and will share what they have been doing!!! Love the eye candy!!!! :wub:

Beautiful work as always Dell!  This is from this Thursday but 2 weeks ago I think.  This is our guilds raffle quilt.  It was fun to quilt but took longer than I thought it would.  I hope it brings in some good dollars!  The blocks were pieced by guild members, one person put the whole thing together, I quilted it and Charlotte (CBowser) did the binding.  Charlotte is the best binder around!  The quilt was 105" sq!!!!  Thanks for looking and pardon the foot!

Haven't done much quilting lately...........I finished piecing a Triple Irish Chain and it is on the "to be quilted" pile...........I have been working on a couple little Chirstmas wallhangings for DD and DIL for Christmas...........we do our Christmas over Thanksgiving weekend, so I have to get my things done a bit earlier.   I bought the kits at the Des Moines Quilt Show earlier this month.  One of these days I will have something to show !

 

Beautiful projects ladies !!!!!

Great quilts and quilting.  I went to our guild work meeting today.  We awarded a quilt of valor to one of our members...she served in the Air Force for 4 years during Korea.  She was positively speechless...brought tears to our eyes.  I also registered for AQS Phoenix classes in February...Judi Madsen and Lisa Sipes  Fun to look forward to!

That is some beautiful quilting girls!!! It has been a couple of months since I've been in the quilt room :( .  My work schedule has changed where I have more time to myself now; but I decided to gut my kitchen & bathroom, remodel them both at the same time......what a mess! Hopefully when this project is done I can get back to the quilt room....sure do miss it!!

Even though it's not finished I will share. I am still working on this one.  I'm trying to figure out about adding corners or leaving it octagon shaped.  I drew these flying geese corners after seeing all the glacier stars lately, but I'm not sure I like them.  What do you think?

Haven't done any quilting for over a month because of my hands. I am loving looking at all the beautiful work shown here, thanks for sharing!

Teresa, I love the geese!

Liam, you are very brave!

Charlotte, great story about your QOV!! And I am so jealous- two of my favorite Longarm quilters. Though I have not taken a class from either, I am always drooling over their quilting and I do have a video from Lisa that I love. Have fun!!

Oh my, such beautiful quilts I hate to even put this silly thing up here. Not finished but I've made good progress, still hoping for a decent outcome,

I have another question. My next project is the exact opposite of this one....its beautiful and perfectly pieced by my good friend Linda. She tried an experiment and pressed all her seams open and its gorgeous. All that perfect work and everything is so nice and crisp looking. My problem is I have no ditches to travel in. I want to put a piano key border but where do I hide those stitches as I travel from key to key. And there are some triangles I'd like to put radiating line in, don't really want to start and stop each one.
