This is my other quilt top I finished recently. I am definitely going to try machine quilting on it. A lady in our Guild gave 2 block patterns a month for a year, so you only made the 2 blocks per month. I didn't use all of them and on some I made 2. And this is what I came up with. I'm going to do a pieced binding, so there will be bright color on the outside. I like it pretty well.

Thank goodness it is cooler today! I thought I was going to melt this week :b! We could use a little rain too, but just being cooler is a blessing...especially at my age!

quilt top finished!

A quilt top finished -hurray!!! I finally got the backing fabric, so now to get it put together. I haven't decided if I will attempt machine quilting or hand quilt it. I do know how I want to quilt it though. The colors are not "me", but I do like how it turned out. Always something new to learn when designing your own. I think I would have liked a narrower red border... oh well :) The wonky part was fun and I'd like to try that again. I have another top finished, but I think I'll put that up tomorrow.

See the cute little head in the left corner? That's my grandson Kenny. Any time a camera is seen he says, "cheese!" Cutie!

art quilt

This is my first art quilt. It's just small and I machine quilted it. I chose fish because my husband likes that. The picture isn't that great- I even used beads for the eyes. It was pretty fun, but very different from what I'm used to doing.

wonky blocks

This is my first try at wonky piecing and I love it! Black and white are not usually my thing, but I was trying to use my stash. All the blocks were made from fat quarters I had and the white on white I had too. I did have to buy the fabric for the borders and backing. I'm slowly using my stash, but it sure is hard to not buy new...

I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day- I certainly did!
