delld Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 My fun time will be ending tomorrow. Frannie Ann is due home and I have a ton of quilts to quilt. While Frannie Ann has been visiting Amy, I have had the quilt show and now me sewing time! I finished the appliques and borders of my Spring Bouquet by Landry Baskets (9 mionths), cut out and stitched together a Quilt of Valor (pattern in Fon's and Porter 's Love of Quilting Mar/Arp 2014) and started a red and white pineapple quilt using the pineapple trim tool by Ann Wright. I have had so much fun!!! 004 by delld1964, on Flickr 007 by delld1964, on Flickr 002 by delld1964, on Flickr Thanks for looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbnt9999 Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 All of the quilts are wonderful! That looks like 2 years of work for me. ha. I'm trying to finish an appliqué I started in the nineties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srichardson Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 You have been busy! I am impressed that the appliqué quilt only took nine months. It's a beauty and I hope that you will post a picture once you have it quilted along with the other two pretty ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

delld Posted March 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 That applique one is gorgeous. Is it fusible or needle turned? It is fused and I did a machine blanket stitch around each piece. What was I thinking! It took forever!!!!!! Thank you everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RitaR Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 All so very pretty! I love that turquoise border on the applique! It seems to say "Hey! Looky here", but then it makes the eye dive right into the body of the quilt. I'd not seen that happen before.. it is beautiful. Thanks for sharing, Rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delld Posted March 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Thanks, Rita! The pattern is 72 by 72 and I need it bigger for our full size bed! So I needed to add something. The border fabric is also in the applique so I knew it would Work, Frannie Ann arrived home yesterday afternoon. Sweet hubby and I will set her back up this morning! I have 17 blocks done for my pineapple quilt! Can't believe I have been able to get so much done! I have my BOM class to night for the Laundry basket quilt (yes, I'm way ahead of everyone else) I will be making the tiny piping to go next to the binding. The piping will be the lime green and the piping will be the blue! Maybe I will be able to quilt her in June! Got my fingers crossed. maybe I should put her on my list!
