A quilt quilted!

 I finished quilting my mom's quilt last night. I am going to my hometown today to visit and attend our family reunion, so will take the quilt with me.
 The back is a solid torquoise, so the thread blends in well with it.  I really like this panto and plan to use it on my next quilt.
Wednesday night was the last night for this Sampler Club, so while they sewed I hung their finished blocks on the design wall. There is a third member who is working on a different sampler, but I forgot to hang hers as things got busy for a bit. I will catch her next time. She might have it finished by then! They will start a new Sampler next month.
With such different color choices, they really don't even look like the same pattern.

Tomorrow I have the second class for the Twisterweave Mystery quilt, so the students get the 2nd clue. I have seen a couple of them this week, and they are caught up and finished with clue 1. Next Saturday I will give them the final clue and finishing instructions. I quilted it soon after I made it, but haven't put the binding on it yet....probably should...soon.

I love being off in the summer!

It is so nice to have the long days to do what I want! I do teach some classes in the summer, but there isn't as much interest in the summer so I don't teach  as many as I do the rest of the year. It is a good time to regroup and figure out what I'm doing next.

I loaded a quilt yesterday and finished quilting it this morning. This is Marge's version of Sampler #10. I can't get a good pic of it myself as it is too big.
The back. I want to get my new sampler started today. I have been working on the design and picked out fabrics the other day, so am anxious to get started on it. Plus the group that will move on to it meets next Monday, so I need to get going so I have something to show them.

I need to get some cleaning done too. I found out the guy is coming to do my kitchen and bathroom floors next Tuesday so there are a couple things I need to get figured out before then...like where will I put the fridge?

One more thing....cluckclucksew is having a great giveaway, go check it out!
