here are three quilt tops I have been trying to finish up.. the tops are now done.. Just need to start quilting them. but not going to do that for a few days. http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c86/Christina_in_ok/RCTQBom.jpg I worked on this one all night to have it finished before the sun went down.. Just made it too.. ( I had the blocks finished as of Dec 2005 but the sashing and the boarders is what I did today. http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c86/Christina_in_ok/GreenandPurple.jpg This is one I had 4 rows done before this year, and what I was reporting on the challange, http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c86/Christina_in_ok/CoreysQuilt.jpg This quilt was a 2005 Bom quilt.. which was also finsihed up this month, most of the blocks where finished before Dec, and in Jan all I had to do was sew the blocks together, and the boarder. Now I have to get busy quilting all the monsters.. but I am going to take a a much needed rest ( at least for the rest of the night) DB

You've really done beautiful work; and just think, you have worked on them over the same period. Good work. Trini. |

Those are beautiful! I wish I could get into my first quilting project that is sitting there, but I have to finish my UFO's first!

Thank you all for your kind words. I am also the same way, I had to put the quilt tops on the back to finish up all the projects I had going around Chrstimas time, just getting quilt tops finished has made my stress level go way down. I can't stand having any UFOs, so I have to get them quilted as fast as I can before I will allow myself to start anything else.. and I am waiting for joann's patterns to go on sale again!! I just love to sew!!! DB

Beautiful work and I'm sure you, like most of, love that feeling of accomplishment! Good for you! The middle one is my favorite altho I like them all. My project has been cleaning up my sewing room so I can find my sewing machines-have found 2 so far, one to go! then I'm going to do a major cut day and get a bunch of stuff cut out, stacked up and ready to go-I hate cutting things out, I'd much rather be sewing. again, great work! Thanks for sharing Lyn

I also do not like cutting, even if it goes faster with the rotery cutter.

Beautiful work Christina! My favorite, the last one. I'm drawn to two color quilts it seems. They are all beautiful. Seems I used all my energy at the holidays, can't seem to get going again although I've started cutting a rag quilt and have several floating around in my mind to do.  Donna

Donaburd, it is really 4 colors, a white, and of white, a dark blue and a light blue, and a green.. the green blends in well with the dark blue. DB
