Back here, when the New Year was still, um, new, I laid out my first quarter hopes for some long hoped-for finishes...
i) My Brit Bee Constellation quilt,
ii) My Mystery Quilt top, and
iii) My Pips Hexie Cushion.
Well I think you might have noticed that I managed to get the Constellation completed, I've harked on about it enough! Ooh look, here it is again...
I love this quilt so so much, it is on our bed keeping us cozy each night, and it is just such a joy to have finished.
The Mystery Quilt has moved on a teeny bit; I sashed all my blocks, played about a bit, then popped it all back in a box, a couple of times...
OK they really do look in need of a bit of a press, sorry! I hope to get this all finished by the end of the quarter.
And during this weeks' ballet lesson, I managed to complete the hexie panel, which I now need to turn into a cushion cover, pronto...
I am going to have to get myself a new half-hour hobby for those dreaded lessons!
So there you go, I have had some success, and not forgetting that I have made a tonne of new stuff too, and started others things which may well end up featuring in the second quarter.
How have you got on? You can't beat that 'finished feeling' eh!
Well I have to get my Mouthy Stitches parcel all wrapped up this evening, more on that tomorrow after I have laid out all 900 or so pieces that I cut for my Stained quilt, as I know for sure I mislabeled some, and possibly forgot to cut a couple of the others, oh it was a late night!
Gorgeous quilt! I can't decide if I like the front of the back more, they are both lovely!
ReplyDeleteYou Constellation quilt is just stunning, back and front! I need to link up with Rhonda too.
ReplyDeleteI think you need to display this one a lot more yet - or even better you could let me have it on loan!?
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to see Brit Constellation again - we really don't see enough of it (no, honestly, I mean that!). Love the Pips panel - maybe you could make another one for the back of the cushion?!
ReplyDeleteI love that quilt so much... If I lived anywhere near you and it suddenly went missing, you'd know I stole it. :-)
ReplyDeleteAmazing! How can you manage to do all this. I love the quilt and the hexies look so gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteLove the hexie panel!! The fabrics are so cute. I have the scarves one!! You have the exact same idea as me with them, only I haven't gotten that far =D
ReplyDeleteYou could go for half hour crochet, if you can suss it out - I'm sure you can (if my Lisa can, you'll be fine!!)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I love your Constellation quilt. That is stunning. Hope you don't mind that I pinned it for future reference. :) Thanks for linking up to TGIFF!
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is just amazing! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteYep I'm not over your Constellation quilt yet either. I still adore it as I wonder where do you find the time to do all this.
ReplyDeleteFeel free to keep sharing the quilt. It is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see I'm not the only one neglecting items for the FAL in favor of new things. :)
Those hexies are full of sherbety goodness. Will make a yummy cushion. Well done on all the stained cutting. It's a marathon isn't it! Jxo
