Latest Photos and Good News

I finally got around to taking pictures of recent finishes. First is the Gracie Bag I made. Notice the antique metal button on the tab - it's from a black watch plaid corduroy coat I had in high school....we won't talk about how long ago that was! (The orange thing toward the back of it is my label tag.) This will be taken along with the snowmen/women angel wall quilts I made, to my boutique at the Beauty Salon.



The next two photos are of the Stained Glass quilt recently finished. It measures about 60" square. Love how it's quilted with variegated roses/reds thread.



And this is the back of the quilt. I couldn't find anything so asked my long arm quilter's advice and she suggested this - I love it! I think the stars with stained glass has a "theme" going!



The good news is that I finally found the missing wall hanging! This morning I was looking for quilts to donate to the local Cheer Fund and found it - hiding in the stack of smaller quilts! Ah - I feel good!

Yesterday was such a lovely day - friend called and thought we should take advantage of it and visit an out of town quilt shop. Of course I was ready to go in a few minutes. I did find some fabrics but controlled myself! And I will use them soon.

Must run and do a few errands - stay well and warm.

Love the stained glass quilt. Has a "Mondrianish" feel to it. The backing fabric is lovely.
