Thimbleberries 2008 and Fred’s Boxy Stars Quilts
Posted By drsao on November 24, 2008
Hip Hip Hooray – the Thimbleberries 2008 Quilt is put together and is now on Sara’s 2009 QUILTING TO DO LIST!
Here it is! As always, I didn’t do it EXACTLY like THE PLAN – I left out the two extra inner borders on the top and bottom of the quilt – but it is 102″ by 102″ and I thought that was LARGE ENOUGH!

I also got Fred’s Boxy Stars Quilt from Sara (Scrappy Sisters) on Sunday! It is ready to bind and then I will be taking it to KC, MO in few days. I feel pretty confident that my brother will NOT read my blog, so this should be a surprise. You may recognize this – it is one of Bonnie Hunter’s (quiltville.com) designs but it looks a lot different when it is done totally scrappy.

The back of the quilt is a HOOT – made from my brother’s PLAIN WHITE AND GREY T-SHIRTS (he never wears any other kind)…..and Sara even left one pocket partially unquilted so I that I could put a PEN in the pocket – too funny! You can clearly see the Baptist Fan quilting pattern that Sara used. I really like it.

I had to get a close up of the pen in the pocket! Girls just GOTTA have fun, right? LOL
Hannah Fay loves it SO MUCH that she climbed up onto the ironing table and took a little nap!
