TWO QUILTVILLE QUILTS FINISHED
Posted By drsao on March 21, 2008
For a quilter, especially for one who has several quilts in various stages of completion (that probably includes MOST – if not all – quilters) there is nothing quite as sweet as actually being able to put one of our quilts on the QUILTS COMPLETED IN 2008 LIST!
I did it – today – at our bi-monthly Friday Sit N Stitch at the Quilter’s Corner, I sewed the last stitch on the binding to complete the Carolina Crossroads Mystery Quilt designed by Bonnie K. Hunter of Quiltville.com.
Do I look HAPPY? YES I AM.
Valerie, my favorite long arm quilter, from A NEEDLE RUNS THROUGH IT in Goochland, VA did the quilting. I just LOVE this quilt!
I think one of the reasons why I love it so much is that it is made totally from material that I had in my stash….and most of it was made from excess fabric from the quilt that I made after my first class from Chris at the Quilter’s Corner – where I learned to quilt – on March 10, 2007.
HERE IT IS!!!!! 
And….that’s not all (I sound like some infomercial that you hear in the middle of late night TV)……
Yesterday I finished the binding on my Scrappy Bargello Super Bowl 2008 quilt…..also designed by Bonnie K. Hunter of Quiltville.com and quilted by Valerie. I am mesmerized by this quilt – all made from scraps of quilts that I made in 2007! It is like my quilt scrapbook! LOVE IT.
HERE I AM HOLDING IT WITH A SINGING HEART!!!!!
Yes, today was a very good day……spring time is here……we are on spring break……I am over the flu…….I got to spend time with my friends at the Quilter’s Corner……..AND ON TOP OF ALL OF THIS, I got to add 2 quilts to my QUILTS COMPLETED in 2008 LIST – and REALLY, that’s not all
…..TA DA…..
I got TWO MORE QUILTS BACK FROM VALERIE today…..that means that there is going to be a lot of binding going on in Midlothian, VA for awhile…..
……..but I will be finished and excitedly waiting to begin Bonnie’s next MYSTERY QUILT on April 1……….stay tuned for more fun to come!
