I love the back of this quilt!! I had cut my borders too large, but didn't want to cut them off, so I wrapped them to the back as the binding.

A Year Gone By
I wish I had more quilt progress to report. I sold my 3D flying geese top on etsy today. A really cute pattern, but I wished it had been bigger. I am working on what I hope will look like a rail fence top. I'm using 6 colors, and having ABC going vertical, and DEF going horizontal. So even if it doesn't look like a rail fence, it should still look pretty nice. I got a top tied for a friend's wedding, still need to sew up the edges on it, and find time to put the next wedding quilt on the frame to tie. Or machine quilt. I'm not sure which, mostly because it's a queen top, and that's a lot of fabric to wrestle on my machine.
Three more really busy weekends, and then summer should be winding down.

Still Stuck
Friday, July 2, 2010
So, I've been busy at my machine for a while- I guess when am I not? Here are the two latest tops. I really like the Paddington Bear one. It might be a gift for my future nephew, if I get to finishing it up before the shower. The trip around the world top was a UFO I had for a few years. The pattern was the one that has you sew the strips into tubes, and that was where I got stuck (more just lost interest in it). Glad I finished it. Sold this, another top, and 2 finished quilts on etsy this last week- very excited about that.
Tyler has started to take a few more steps! His first birthday is now less than a month away, can't believe how fast it has gone.
