A Quilting Reader's Garden

I Like Thursdays

Here's the big news for us:
It's raining in California - SoCal to be exact! Suppose to rain for part of today.

Thank you, God!

and I really like I'm back to the quilting part of a project:

Now I'm off to get ready for a very special luncheon - I'll tell you all about it tomorrow.

Be sure to drop by Lee Anna's I Like Thursdays for some happy likes from this past week.

First the destashing. Made a baby quilt top using a you-tube tutorial for a half log cabin block. She used a layer cake to make hers. I used 20" squares of two fabrics that made the whole top. Here it is:

Lighting is bad, but you get the idea.

The two Christmas prints.

This came out to 36" square - just the right size for a St. Anne's baby quilt. Used 1.1 yds total of two fabrics to make this top. Worked on my SLOL quilt and am adding borders. Used only 0.09 for that. Sanwiched my SLOL, too, and used 1.43 yds. I am now quilting it. So my new YTD total is 70.41 yds destashed out of the 84 yards needed to meet my goal.

My Friday finish that I didn't get to post was a preemie quilt.
Quilted:

Bound

and delivered to the NICU

This was a completely scrappy quilt. I used a disappearing nine patch pattern.

What are you up to? I'd love to come by your blog and see your project - please leave me a comment.. I'm linking to Sunday Stash and Esther's WOW. Lots of goodies there. Blessings,
