yay 2 more done

I spent several nights this week getting 2 more quilts bound. When A Tisket A Tasket was offered as a free BOM in 2009 Anne did 2 versions, applique & redwork. I liked the look of both so that's what i did.
 The applique version,
& my redwork version. Buttons & ribbons needed to be added along with the bindings. I've been busy spring cleaning & haven't been able to get to the machine to bind any more of those UFO's. Hopefully this weekend i'll get there. :)

Happy Stitching,

Oh Jeanette you put me to shame!! They are both really lovely and I am doing the applique one and am half way thru the blocks. I will finish it tho. My goodness was it two years ago that this was offered?? I think 2012 is going to be my UFO year. You are getting lots done :) Hugs Vicki x

They are both beautiful, but I really like the appliqued one. I'm curious, is your binding all done by machine or do you do sew it to the back by hand?

I just found your blog today and I LOVE IT!!!! I just started learning to applique, and I would lvoe to make this applique quilt. Do you know if there is anywhere I could still find the pattern? I tried her blog, but didn't find it. :(

#4 Chookshed Stitchers Challenge.

 At the start of March i had this pile of blocks. I couldn't get my head around how to turn all these differing block sizes into a quilt...
