Catching up...again

I feel like that short legged cousin who when you go for a walk, is always running to catch up. There is lots of fun going on, but how to keep up with it all. I am closing in on completing all of my Christmas presents  and it time to deliver these quilts to my LA and to fill those reserved spots.

I have finished to Tumalo Trails top (76" square), pattern by Bonnie Hunter from her Scraps & Shirting II: Continuing the Art of Quilting Green. It is ready to go to Kim Caskey Custom Quilting. That has used up 'some' of my 2" colour wash squares, unlike Bonnie who used 1.5" in her original pattern


and "Grand Illusions" is also off the LA.

The RSC15 is coming together beautifully! I will have a reserved spot for sometime in the new year. I think it deserves so custom detailing rather than a panto. I love these lime green blocks in here. To check up on other lime green loveliness head over to SoScrappy.


And getting right in the upcoming holiday mode, I got a few Christmas Baubles together with a glue gun on a Sunday afternoon. This is the happy result, a jewel toned wreath (click on the photo to enlarge).

Love and hugs to all
Kathy

    Thanks Julierose. It has been so much fun making the Tumalo Trails and letting all of those variety of 2" squares morph into a very interesting background. Those 9 patches are made up of 'any goes'. The bauble wreaths are very fun to make. But oh that hot glue...this was a one blister wreath. Thanks for faithfully leaving a comment...hugs Kathy

    The quilts are all just beautiful! And I love your wreath. If my glue gun wasn't so mean to me, I'd be tempted to make one, too!

    I agree - the backgrounds in the sampler are great adding interest and movement. All your quilts are lovely - but I love that X pattern on the top one.

    Congrats on those wonderful finishes. The rainbow quilt looks great with the low value backgrounds. The wreath is so rich and elegant. I may come by and steal it off of your door.
