nearly all done

Holidays are over sadly but it's been a great week for labels and binding with some finishes to tick off the list.

Basket case is a big finish, label sewn on too...


The back is my attempt at a Liberty quilt but I wasn't quite happy with it so it made a perfect backing.

Tilda's Hometown  (adjusted) is done and will be gifted to a work friend.
This was quilted by a novice quilter friend. The larger quilting design has made it very soft, just like a handquilted quilt.



Don't these labels look pretty on their quilts?

Things will slow down, productivity wise but rest assured there will be crafting being done. 

Have a great day

  5. Lovely, lovely finishes. Your work is beautiful.
    And gorgeous backings, too.
    There is so much work in the basket quilt, but so worth it.
    I really like the effect created by the quilting in Hometown. More stunning stitching.
    Damn those holidays finishing. Very inconvenient.

  7. Beautiful finishes - good on you labelling so well! Great idea to use your 'not so loved' quilt as a backing!

  9. Your labels and backings are every bit as wonderful as the fronts!!! I am a bad girl and don't take the time to do labels. Perhaps I should make it my 2025 goal to label all the quilts in my house.
    I have all the records to do them. I am just too anxious to start something else to take time to label.

hello

 Time is getting away from me it would be lovely to be able to slow it down. Crafting inspiration seems to be lacking as I try to finish off...
