2016 Finish-A-Long

The start of another year!

I apologise first off to those who  have seen 

most of the photos on my list of finish projects for the quarter.

Only one is in need of extra piecing work the remainder all
need quilting.

My list for the 1st Quarter:

High Flyer
Quilt for Daisy
Desert Rose
Blue Heaven
Scrap Rainbow
Alley Cats
Ice Cream

High Flyer

This needs quilting and quickly!!! This is for our youngest grand-daughter

who has a birthday on the 18th of this month, I need more hours in

my day. You can read the story about High Flyer HERE.

Quilt for Daisy
The story about this quilt is HERE

Desert Rose

 Desert Rose needs two more borders, she was part of the Midnight at the Oasis
Quilt-A-Long

Blue Heaven

Scrap Rainbow

Alley Cats

Ice Cream

Guess I'd better get on that machine!!

I'm off now to link up with
Leeanne at She Can Quilt
for the first quarter. 

A gathering of quilt tops - quite a few photographs

We had an absolutely beautiful spring day yesterday,

apple blossom

Rugosa "Alba"

everything in the garden is slowly coming back to life, scent from wisteria and our

Viburnum bush, orange blossom and the Rugosa rose above 

 pervades the whole back garden when all 

bushes are in full flower.

This was a good day to pull out my quilt tops from my very large

drawer in the chest in the bedroom. I keep them in there until I'm ready to sandwich

them and I also usually have a couple in there rolled up

ready to quilt, but they needed to see some fresh air so outside they went

under the apple tree.

Alley Cats - Rainbow Challenge 2014

Red Sea Sunset - Half Square Triangle Challenge

Ice Cream - going to be hand quilted

Blue Heaven

Rainbow Rag

I have two ready now for quilting, sandwiched yesterday

Northern Lights

Paintbox - before straightening the bottom left!




So nothing exciting achieved this week, once again. Oh, I have finished up the sewing
on High Flyer for my grand-daughter and playing with Scrap Vortex.

I have a provisional date of 12th November for my next hospital visit so
I'm trying to get a few loose ends tied up.

Thanks so much for all your good wishes and I should be posting
again during the week with progress on other projects!
