Three finishes

Finished the binding on this one. . .






Finished quilting and binding this one.


I tried a zillion (well, maybe 6 or 7) different things in the reds squares but couldn't find anything I liked. I pulled all the stitches and decided to wait until the rest of it was quilted to select a design for the red squares. Turns out it looks great with nothing in the red - makes them pop out. So they will remain untouched.




I love the way the back looks with the empty spaces where the red squares are on the front. And this quilt will be special because Karen quilted a bit of it as her maiden voyage on my long-arm.



This one is for a new baby boy. Started it yesterday and it was so simple it's finished already. Can't decide on a name . . . . Nine Patch Cubed? Nine Patch Times Two? Nine Times Nine? Nine Patch Exploded?

Three finishes in less than one week, I think that means that instead of getting back to a UFO I get to start something new!!!!

I really like all your quilts. You do such good work. I have so much trouble making squares. You are an inspiration.
