time for finishes


Pinned and ready to quilt... My tile quilt (old posts here) finally has it's red borders... (!!) (see old post) I'm very happy to be in the home stretch on this quilt... So i can start another.... ;-) I have gone through my scraps in preparing for one more... Bigger... Now I jsut need to figure out how I am going to quilt this...On my mini one for AAQI,(old posts) I randomly sewn in the brown background fabric, then went back in by hand and quilted the appliqued pieces... I like the texture it gave, so I may do the same on the larger quilt...
Today is the day to get these border son this Chinese new Year Quilt... And I hope to get this quilted this week also... Time is running out! B had some input to the borders, two sides left and I can put the backing on...

And the 8 SIS BOOM POW! Kids quilts(click here) have their backings and are shipped off to Linda to quilt... Yippee!! It's a grand Monday!

Happy Sewing!

All great finishes! I love that B puts in her input. I find that my daughter is doing that more and more. Your quilting on the AAQI is wonderful. Love the brown background fabric.

All looks great! I especially like that red border on your tile quilt. It certainly pulls it all together.

Loving those tile quilts. I have bags and bags of little tiny scraps, so I need to make one as soon as I finish my two current projects! Your borders are fantastic! They really make those quilts pop.
