2 quilt tops finished -- well, maybe 1½

There are in my "Quilts in Progress" Album at Webshots.

One is only a 28" x 28" neo-natal quiltie top. Can't count that as a full
top!! Must be totally done by next Saturday. I'm ignoring my light bulb
problem to get more done on the little quiltie today. If I'm hand sewing
the binding by Monday evening, I'll be happy.

The other is 40-something by 40-something else. It's my entry into the
About.com Arizona Challenge. We just have to have the top done by January
15.

So now I feel like I've truly accomplished something over this Track Break
from school. Must return to school on Monday. Then we go on December 20 we
start our 2-week Winter Break.

The Christmassy quilt for teenies is fun; but I love the Arizona
challenge. Is that a Navaho pattern? It seems reminiscent of that
style, to me? I love the fabrics.

The Christmas neo-natal quiltie is cute, but I *really* like the Arizona
challenge quilt. Is it from a pattern or did you design it yourself? The
colors and design are perfect!

Oops, forgot to give credit for the pattern. The three center columns
surrounded by black is a design by Janet Wickell of About.com. She calls it
Through the Windows. She was inspired by a carpet.

See
http://quilting.about.com/b/2008/11/...lt-pattern.htm.
She also has a link to her Arizona Challenge there.

I just put on more borders. Found the stripe with Kokopelli in it and
decided that particular border would be the width of the Kokopelli part of
the stripe.

They look great Kay. Your bearcat is one cutie. You have some
great action shots of him.

If I explained your problem with the light bulb to dh right he says it
is oxidization. Once you get the bulb out make sure power is OFF
and clean with some alcohol. You might even have to scrape it a
bit. Won't be dangerous to run with it but the yucky stuff impedes
a good contact. HTH.

A quilt is a quilt IMO, no minimum size requirement! You have a great
way with colors -I really like both of these!

Thank you! I've enjoyed playing with colors since I got my first box of
Crayolas. And the boxes keep getting more and more colors as the decades go
by!

The neo-natal quilt is just delightful, Kay, and I love the desert colors in
your AZ challenge. Whew! Those are some tough deadlines you're working
under!

Just got my sewing room back in commission. We took up the carpet and put
down tile. Doing the work ourselves so it took awhile. I'm looking forward
to getting back into the swing of sewing.
