UFO's finished, and more Nashville Quilt show quilts...


The latest finished UFO's. I had started this little under the sea quilt...as part of a challenge for my guild in Texas. Moved away more than 5 yrs ago...so this is that long in the making. The challenge fabric is the busy print I used for the seaweed. We only had to make something, a block, a square.... whatever. So I made this little quilt...never quilted, but now finished... and only have to finish sewing the binding on... over the weekend. PROMISE! I put a few little closeup pics.This was fun to do. Hand appliqued, and machine quilted with a verigated thread. Then, had to finish up a little quilt, this one was on the John Flynn frame, before I got the long arm. I got it bound and sewed down today. Yeah, a couple of more little projects in the finished column.






In the background is the wood burner in our family room, that we hope to use this winter. I still have no idea how cool it gets here yet, but sure we will find out soon enough. The professor and I are off to the Auburn Mississippi State game tomorrow. Woo hoo! I do so enjoy the noise, and thrill of college gamesj! Hope the college kids are a little less throw happy.....course I did mull taking toilet paper into the stadium..... just for the "good old days" of it. But it might embarrass the Professor....and I have done plenty of that over the years....but that is a whole other story. Hope all of you have a lovely weekend.
I will leave you with a few pics of the Nashville Quilt show.Some of these were stunning. I definitely liked the colorful ones...but adored the Baltimore. They always speak to me. Mostly wishful thinking I think. Will I ever finish mine???? No one can answer that one?!!! Maybe before I get too old to hold a needle? *S*
