And sewed, and sewed; made a spot of lunch, then sewed some more.
The second commission quilt for Sizzix now has a completed top...

| OK, it needs a good press, and some decent lighting. |
And as I was feeling so buoyed with getting so far, so quickly, I signed up for round 6 of the Pretty Little Pouch Swap. I have been 'umming and 'arrhing all week about joining in. There's still time if you are interested; it's a quick turnaround swap, with rather specific skill categories. I opted for Intermediate; no uber-fancy-pants piecing or embroidery required. I am good with that.
Here's my mosaic...
With the prospect of no snow here any time soon, I guess it'll be business as usual tomorrow. Hey ho...
Very cool quilt top and that mosaic is very cool and very you!
ReplyDeleteLove the new top! In my head I'm calling it Blind Geese! Can you guess why?!
ReplyDeleteLooks great, looking forward to seeing it all done. Have fun swapping!
ReplyDeleteLove your flying geese - it will be stunning all completed.
ReplyDeleteLove your design. Now write it up and sell it.
ReplyDeleteDo I detect that you are secretly hoping for a snow day with the kids in front of a DVD under a quilt and you sewing? Your quilt is really beautiful - understated and very elegant.
ReplyDeleteLooking great...and that's some mosaic!
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful top! Exactly what Annabella said - understated and elegant!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt top looks fabulous and so does the mosaic.
ReplyDeleteLove the top! It's not as white as I thought it would be, nicely balanced ma'am. We are forecast snow. Rats.
ReplyDeleteFabulous quilt top
ReplyDeleteI love those baby geese tucked under mama's wings! Jxo
ReplyDeleteI've been like you stitching up a storm but yours is more impressive. Applied to join the pouch swap too.... Be fun to get in. Fingers crossed x
ReplyDeleteIt looks great Hadley! Well done :)
ReplyDeleteThey are all heading south east - guess they are visiting you or of to France? Looks great! Keep em coming!
ReplyDeleteWas so tempted to join that swap but have resisted - January is going to be just too busy to swap! ; ( Hope it works well for you though - envying your partner already!
I do like it, I thought I would, and I do. I really really do... :-)
ReplyDeleteNo such thing as too modern, it is great. And have fun in the swap!
ReplyDeleteOh I do love this quilt top. Just the right amount of modernity for me and I agree with Leanne that it can't be too modern.
ReplyDeleteThe geese look great (not flying but flocking, aren't they?) and I like your idea of trying this pattern in reverse, too.
ReplyDeleteAs with the churn dash, I think this in reverse will look great. I might have been tempted to have made some 1/3 or 2/3 width blocks for some rows to stagger the baby geese?
ReplyDelete(sorry, that came across as negative didn't it, it's a fab design, well done)
I think your quilt top is just absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to see how you quilt it!
ReplyDeleteLoving the mosaic - the oranges are just delish.
love that top! (and we have snow, dammit!!!!!)
ReplyDeleteYour quilt top is super, love the mix of babies and mums, could be a great scrap buster.
ReplyDeleteLove this! Am in London for a visit & there was a very light dusting of snow overnight. Hoping for more :)
ReplyDeleteAnother superb design!! We've got snow...
ReplyDeleteLove it so much! Thinking the idea of the reverse with scraps would be brilliant too!
ReplyDeleteoooh, I like the 1/2 square quilt!
ReplyDeleteyou are ambitious. It's good to be involved and participate in a lot. I learn so much every time I am in a swap
ReplyDeleteIt's very cool and modern! I think it would look even better in the reverse, pattern scraps and white tips.
