Recent finishes

I'm settling in here pretty well.  I'm still waiting for a call to return to working but am sewing and getting other things done until then.  I've finished two quilt tops - no photos yet - and three quilts.  Nancy Drew was bound and sent off to its new home last week:

I also finished two other quilts that Laura at Star City Stitchery quilted for me:  a green and white jellyroll scrap quilt she did in a Baptist Fan pattern ... 



And my Lily Ashbury Summer House jelly roll quilt that was made from the free pattern that Moda released with Kate Spain's Good Fortune line (you can get the pattern here).  Laura quilted this with a Sunflower pattern she had used on my previous quilt, Spanish Treasure.



The sun really helps the eye see the quilting patterns on these quilts.

In the move I came across those stray Quiltmaker 100 Blocks tester blocks I had made and blogged about as part of my giveaway for Volume 6.  Volume 8 hit the stands this past week, that's how long ago that was!  And I never did anything with those blocks.  Well, the bee I've joined has a box for random blocks - take or give - and I think they will go in there.

The bee meets tonight so I'd better get ready to go.  Just wanted to mention that I'm still here, still sewing.
