Piecing Quilt...my Iron QUIT! ( Top Complete! New Pic post 56!)

[speckledhen]

Thanks, Lisa! I do love it. And having it on the bed confirmed that the paint color I chose for my bedroom wall recently will go with most anything--it has a different overall look than the two quilts I made for myself, but the warm color works great with it, too.

I love it! Great job!

What's next?

Terrie, you are such a slave driver, er, um, motivator.

I have a block for a swap I will get done, then I guess I need to quilt the Jewel Box quilt top I made recently. I am piecing the border strips diagonally right now, in between checking on the birds. Waiting for a neighbor to come pick up several dozen eggs so will be on and off here all day.

Wow!!! Great work.
When I see projects like that I feel instantly inadequate.

 

[speckledhen]

No, you should feel inspired, not inadequate! Just jump in and make a quilt. Use squares only for ease of piecing. A one block quilt like that can look spectacular with the right color combination.

Top Complete! This is much larger than I thought it would be. It's bedspread size! I'm exhausted. Will be taking a short break then have to piece a block for a group project. Now, can I

, Terrie and Kathy? Excuse the thread all over the floor--too tired to vacuum.

Are you sure that is a queen sized bed?

Wow, it is much larger than I thought! It looks great, and you deserve a break now!

I like it, I like it, I like it .... alot! I do like those colors. They are actually neutral enough to use in about any decor. Just add accessories of any color. Great job you did!

OK, next project ?

 

[speckledhen]

I finished the block I committed myself to make for a group project. I think I may take a short break then quilt the Jewel Box lap quilt I made awhile back--this one:

You may have the weekend off, Cyn.

But back to it bright and early Monday.

Your quilt is as always, beautiful!
