Mid-August Update

I picked up a pattern at guild this week that was on our "free table".  It was sunflowers and perfect to give as a gift to a friend who recently lost her mother to cancer.  It is finished and ready to go in the mail tomorrow.

11.5 x 31 inches

The quilting doesn't show, but I used gold metallic in the flowers.
Everything was fused and most pieces where secured with blanket stitch.

I am caught up on my blocks for The Quilt Show BOM 2019!  Only one more block, then we start the borders.

I will attach the purple outer sections after I make the final block.
I realized I might want to put them in a different position.
Each block finishes at 20 x 20 inches.

I also made two baby quilts for my sister to sell in the gift shop at her local hospital.  I didn't realize I hadn't taken a final photo until just now.  This is the 'boy' version - blue and green.  There is also a 'girl' version in pink.  I found the kits on sale at Shabby Fabrics and bought two of each.  I'll make the other two to sell at our quilt show next summer.

I've had a productive start for August!!
Thanks for checking in.
