I know I have not posted in forever!

This is a quilt wall quilt I made after the DQS8 swap it was one of the ideas I had but my partner did not comment on this one so I made her the one that she commented on. Still I wanted to try this technique. I like how it is turning out. These are the pinwheel blocks I am working on for the Old Red Barn Pinwheel quilt along I am behind be I have a few blocks done there just has not been any free time around her since before Christmas.

These are the fabrics I picked out for the Pinwheel quilt they kind of speak pinwheel to me! They are not my usual fabrics but I like them.

This is the quilt I received from my DQS8 swap partner (Friedazzz) ... It is awesome I love it so much and just want to thank her for the wonderful job she did I love, love, love it!

Zig zag quilt along decisions?

This is the zig zag quilt I am working on, I am deciding on whether to add another border or or not. And if so which fabric? What ever fabric is not used for this top will probably be used for the second quilt made from left the over fabric.

I would like to use this quilt for picnics, the beach, fireworks, lots of outdoor fun. I am leaning towards the deep cherry fabric for the first quilt and the pink for the second quilt.

This second top was suppose to be the back of the zig zag quilt but is now going to be a quilt on its own and I am deciding what fabric to use for an additional border?

This is the full view of the second quilt made from left overs of the first quilt. If you have any suggestions please leave a comment and let me know what you think.

I Finally Did It!

I have been trying since yesterday to put The Old Red Barn Quilt Along Button on my new blog also just created yesterday. Now just to get some quilting stuff up. I still have a lot to learn but it is sometimes a challenge but that is also what makes it fun.



Of course I spent the weekend working on trying to figure this out and have missed out on a lot of quilting time.



I need to get to work on my zig zag quilt so that I do not get behind. These are my fabrics cut into the 5 inch squares I am calling this my spumoni quilt. It definitely reminds me of ice cream. I think I am going to go and have some right now then I will get back to work.
