Well I can't believe that winter is over for us! I have been so busy creating that I haven't blogged again for 3 weeks. So let me explain some of what I have been doing:-
Firstly I have sent this little art quilt to Berry Patchwork Shop for their quilt show and retreat.
It was entered in the One Red Thread Competition with a Theme for this year of Moulin Rouge
You can see other entries for this competition and others plus the winners here
The next finish this weekend was for my Mystery which i started at Christmas time. This was from Bonnie Hunter and it was Celtic Solstice, as I changed colours and part of the design I am now calling this Blooming Celtic Solstice. I am really please how this has come together. My hubby loves it and it will be his couch quilt after I finish it
The last finish is my Delightful Stars Quilt. This has been a Quilt Along which I have been doing with mishkas playground. I have added a few stars and even designed one myself as I wanted a Square quilt, this measures 96" reason it is touching the ground.

The Eiffel Tower and delightful stars sure do make for some fun quilting.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jill, both have been great fun, I will enjoy quilting delightful stars later
DeleteLOVE your art quilt so much... your flimsies are so fun and colorful!!! Thanks so much for linking up with me my friend! :) Kathi
ReplyDeleteIt's a pleasure to link with you
DeleteAll sew beautiful! I love the colors in your Celtic Solstice! My own was the original colors and it is still in pieces. You and very inspiring ... :) Pat
ReplyDeleteThanks Pat, I look forward to seeing yours come to life. The reason I changed colours is I was working on a large storm at sea with blues and greens and I couldn't afford to pull any of them until that quilt was pieced.
DeleteLove how you modified the Celtic Solstice quilt! Are you planning to hand or machine quilt it? You have got a lot done in August. Wishing you luck in meeting your goals for September.
ReplyDeleteDeb, I am planning on hand quilting but I am going to use big stitch method I think it will add another dimension to this quilt. I won't get to it for a little bit as I have one large project on the frame at the moment and then I have to do another for a deadline. Then I can choose this one I hope
