One Monthly Goal Finishes!!

 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!

    1. Thanks! I haven't done bias binding in a while. It wasn't nearly as difficult as my brain wanted me to believe! Happy Stitching!

  2. Love 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!)

    1. It 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!
