Finally

Finally finished this one for Kennisha.
  This pic is about 1/3 of the quilt.

Here you can see the quilting a little better.
I did cross hatching on the black floral parts, not something I usually do, but it looks pretty good over the flowers.


In the four corner squares I did this design that I learned from the Eva Larkin book I have which is my absolute favorite free motion quilting book!!!
If you don't have it I highly recommend it! 
It will totally boost you FMQ skills.
And DO read every word from the front cover to the back, the lady KNOWS what shes talking about!


Another pic to show the leaves in the green border, the big meander in the yellow border, 
the curlicues in the red border, 
and a repeat of the leaves only this time with a back and forth to them,
ending with more cross hatching in the black floral border.
(Still not a fan of doing crosshatching but I like the look of it.


Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

Happy Quilting!

Too tired to Post

Been away for awhile because I've been basically to weak to quilt and too tired to post.
I had a flare up Myasthenia gravis and as usual it whipped my butt.
I'm better now and back to quilting and posting.

I did this one for Diane before I got weak:


It has lots of hearts!





I managed to get this one basted with help from my friends while I was feeling down.  
This one is queen size and is for Nancy: 


I've quilting on this for a week now and I'm down to the next to the last border!!
(Whew!)


It has flowers in the four patches, curlicues in the sashing, and feathers in 2 of the 3 borders.

I have plenty of quilts to do so I'll be posting a lot.

Happy quilting!
