First up, the pineapple quilt top is almost assembled.
There were a few bumps
along the way . I got ahead of myself
and skipped a trimming step so a few
blocks had to be finished up
and retrimmed so it is almost ready to join.
It looks great tho, doesn't it?
Unfortunately, the longarmer is
way behind and it will be complete in time for
a spring showing on my bed!
Then I zipped up a binding or three!
Getting near the end of the pinned pile.
Our bee group's charity's headquarters fell victim to fire
so they will be needing additional quilts at
end of the month. These small twin quilts should
do nicely. My BB (best buddy) left a pile of
wonderful quilts to help out. She is amazingly generous.
Holiday events are starting soon so let's all get
our jingle on!
Stay safe and sew on !

ReplyDeleteI use the creative grids ruler , it makes it quick and easy!
DeleteYou certainly do make the most of your scraps, loving all the colorful loggy fun! Quilting is the only place where it's good to be in a "bind", LOL!
ReplyDeleteHaha, I see what you did there! Yes getting to the binding stage is always the top of the hill for me!
DeleteThe quilt tops are scrappily wonderful -- but, oh, the pieced backs!! (I am partial to those.)
ReplyDeleteI like the scrappy backs too! A whole new area to decorate!
DeleteThat Pineapple quilt is going to be magnificent, Deb! Congrats on your THREE finishes for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!!
