Hot off the frame

I was able to get the binding on during lunch today  - so excited.  I divided each diamond into 4 and did continuous curve on each of the sub diamonds.  I think it gives it a lacy feel.  Then add a couple feathers and you're done.  Nice cozy flannel on the back.  This went together so quickly.





Just some simple straight lines on this one.  Great way to use up those 2.5 inch strips.  I added the left over blocks to the back and calling this one done!  Check out the linky's on the side bar, added a few new ones for the new year.  Go get inspired!

  3. What great quilting on your star - simple to you, impossible for me. And the straight line quilting works perfect on the tube quilt - just love the lite spray of color thru this one.
