The first finish is my hand pieced Lone Star. I started this quilt with several other ladies in my Friday Sewing group at Somerset Patchwork.
Every stitch is by hand, so it took me almost exactly 12 months to finish this top! I plan to machine quilt it (it is huge so would take too long to hand quilt!!), but have no idea how....yet!
As usual. I have had several other projects on the go this month.
I made a little pouch with some Cotton and Steel fabric as a gift.
A little more progress has been made on Mountmellick.
One of the corner blocks...
...and the completed border attached to the centre medallion I made last year!
.Sorry its upside down!!
I have started the next border. So far I have made 5 out of a dozen hexie flowers using half inch hexies.
Next is another machine stitched block for Citrus Sweet Love.
Last night I finished stitching the very last block of the Chester County Criswell Quilt, block 33.
There have been several challenging blocks in this quilt and I think I found this one the most challenging!!
Today I machine stitched all the blocks together!!
I made the first block in August 2012 and there has been one block a month since then. Lots of hand applique!! I am going to miss stitching one of these blocks every month.
This photo was just a quick shot taken outside. I hope to get some better photos over the next few days. It was fun pulling out all the blocks and remembering those I had stitched many months ago.
Already I have chosen 2 more new quilts to start!!! Plus I have plans to keep working on some older WIP and get some more finishes!
