posted pics of 2 quilt tops
I posted pics of 2 quilt tops I finished in the last few months. One is the
3D fan quilt I have been working on for my grandson. The fabric I bought for the border and back is bright colored frogs on bright turqouise. I have the border on now and just bought the batting for it--had to get dble size batting as it is bigger than crib but smaller than twin. The Leisure Arts sampler quilt has its own folder. Their are 2 views of the top and 3 closeups of blocks I substituted 'cause I did NOT want to do the applique it showed in the book! Have to get the fabric for the back--probably will be the purple (like the sashing) if if can find more of it at Walmart. I have pictures of the first half of the Chaos Harmony top I finished last week but the film is sitting in my purse waiting to be dropped off! The pictures of the last half and the borders are still in the camera. From the left overs of the Chaos Harmony, I made 4 patches (blue/purple and green/yellow) for a total of 60 four-patches which I am starting to put together for probably just a lap quilt--maybe with the green (have to get more) for border/back. This gives me 4 quilt tops DONE this year (my first year quilting) and 1/2 of one quilted It's so much more fun to make the tops! In addition to the 4-patch, I also have 4 more WIP as BOM projects and 1 in planning stage (most of fabric bought, but not washed, ironed, cut) -- Kathy in CA Quilting Stuff: http://photos.yahoo.com/bc/kathys1068 |

What lovely colours - they work nicely together in the sampler, and
the 3d fan looks great. Well done! Suzie B -- "From the internet connection under the pier" Southend, UK http://community.webshots.com/user/suziekga |

Hi Kathy,
Congrats on such nice work. I'm not sure what part of quilting I enjoy more. I don't mind the actual quilting because soon I will see the finished project and finished is always good :-) -- mslibra www.cutcakes.ca "Kathy" wrote in message ...
