Quilt for Baby Boo -- Basted!

The last time I posted about this quilt it looked like this:


I decided to change up my plan entirely and turn it into an on-point rail fence. I used the backing fabric for the setting triangles and then decided that it was too small, so I used the last half yard of the yellow fabric as a 3 inch border.

(Clara tried to "help".)


Much better with a border! I'm planning to use the same fabric from the setting triangles for the binding too.


And now it is all pin basted and ready to quilt! I am planning to try to do some simple custom quilting on it. I am planning to do squiggles in the rail fence block, loops in the setting triangles, and loops in the border as well.

November Wishes Block

Well, I'm not making a lot of progress on anything else, so I figured today I would show my November Wishes QAL block.


Just December to go now! I can't wait to see this one all come together! :)

Finished Quilts for Twins

They are finished! Hooray!

I managed to finish both the quilting on the purple-mint-peach quilt AND the pink-yellow-blue quilt on Wednesday, and got the bindings finished this morning.

I quilted the pink-yellow-blue quilt with a simple meander and used a pink flannel backing and a yellow binding.




For the purple-mint-peach quilt, I used a loop-de-loop meander. The backing on this one is purple and the binding is a peach fabric that I used in some of the blocks that I made.




All ready to send off to some very cute sisters!


Linking up last minute to Finish it up Friday!
