Well, I am actually getting my finishes
into the finish link ups, yay!!!
I have made some great progress this July.
The beginning of the month saw a colorful top quilted
up and donated to the Northeast Babies.
Then, after a difficult quilting morning,
two of the crazy log cabins were quilted up.
A saucy stripy binding finished them off very well and
the " to be quilted" pile is shrinking nicely.
The backs were fun too!
The end home for these quilts is yet to be
decided but they
should be welcome where ever they go!
I started a total of four of these black background
log cabins during wild weekend of making the center
blocks that left me with lots of options for quilts!
I've made a good start on the Rainbow strip strings tops too!
A few afternoons layering up should get the
rainbow tops ready to quilt!
Stay safe and sew on into August!

You've been very busy. These are so fun! And that saucy striped binding is perfect. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks! I haven't done bias binding in a while. It wasn't nearly as difficult as my brain wanted me to believe! Happy Stitching!
DeleteLove those wild log cabins -- they really aren't wild just wonderful bright colors. Each of the borders are terrific. You come up with some really great quilts/ideas. The bright stripe finishes them off perfectly. (In my opinion!)
ReplyDeleteI value your opinion! I have one more almost finished up and two have homes. I am really in a great work phase, and I saw a hummingbird this morning! A great day all around!
DeleteYou had a very productive week! Both quilts are so bright and colorful. Black backgrounds just make those colors pop.
ReplyDeleteThanks , it seems we all make use of some dark fabrics, they sure make colors pop!
DeleteWow - those are awesome! Can't beat a good striped binding.
ReplyDeleteFor sure! I still have a few meters left of that good stuff!
DeleteI'm grateful to you for introducing me to the crazy log cabin technique. Your finished versions both look terrific!
ReplyDeleteThank you , there is one more in the get this finished area but it may have to wait.
DeleteI have a wedding quilt to finish!
WOW, I am not a quilter but can admire great work. Gorgeous

DeleteWow! Those turned out beautifully. Love that striped binding.
ReplyDeleteIt did turn out well didn't it ! Since most of my quilts go out the door, I won't have time to get too familiar with it so it will always be delightful! Happy stitching!
DeleteI adore those black background wonky log cabins. So scrappy, so fun!!
ReplyDeleteThank you , they were fun to do!
DeleteYou were busy! I have 2 tops done and no idea when I will finish them off.
ReplyDeleteI have a few like that too! We will get to them someday!
DeleteCute donation baby quilts joyful and bright! I love the log cabin quilts too, and the borders are wonderful! Fun backings too!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I have a little pile of baby quilts ready to go to the center again !
DeleteIt's such a great feeling getting those WIPs finished, isn't it? Good job on those backings too. That clears out some fabric too. Have a fabulous week!
ReplyDeleteOh yes , I love to tick them off the list!
Deleteyou have been so crazy busy!! what great quilts. I like that stripey binding - its perfect
ReplyDeleteThat stripy binding is a lot of fun, I will definitely be doing more of it!
DeleteI love a log cabin of any kind. I really like this one.
