2 finishes

These have both been done for a while so last night, when I should have been making dinner, I dragged them outside for a little photo shoot fun.

Up first is the diamond pinwheel quilt, pattern by that girl that quilt.  The pattern should be available soon.  I'll email Jennifer and find out when.  I quilted this using Angela Walters' hooked feather design from her book and it was love!

Next is my Swoon.  Started back in October and finally done.  Good grief!  I don't normally quilt using pantographs (a paper pattern that you trace using the laser pointer on your longarm) but they're fun to do ever so often and I was really stuck with how to quilt this.  So,  blooming feather by Anne Bright.  Looking back I should have done something less fussy.  Whatever.

I was just putting the quilts away when Bea came along and walked across the Swoon.  I would have been mad except it really was at the perfect spot!

happy weekend,

testing... testing

I always love it when a quilt goes from this...

To this...

Ok, minus the grabby hands tree.  I'm obviously searching for somewhere on the property that I can display quilts and tops for photos!  Let's just cross trees off the list!

This is a soon to be released pattern that I was lucky enough to test for Jennifer of That Girl... That Quilt.  I'm not sure if she has a name for it yet, I'm just calling it diamonds.  I'm really excited about this quilt and I know the pattern is going to be a hit.  It goes together so quickly and smartly!  Don't be fooled by all those scary bias edges.  Starch and Jennifer's clear instructions mean this is really a piece of cake.  Maybe not your first quilt easy, but anyone who's tackled half square triangles is up for this design.

Tomorrow I hope to get a back stitched up and get this quilting!
