Cotton candy

Wish I had some right now. Just finished putting together the center of this b h quilt. Still have to finish rest of piano key outer border. Will be glad to get this one off the ufo list.
Glad I had the fabric "freckles" by Northcott  because I think it is perfect.
Enuf quilting today. Going to try recipe for skillet cornbread Gene gave me today.
Yum.

Fan finished

Finally finished this top after over 3 years.
I love the Japanese fabrics and the colors.
Now to find a back.

Fandango

Here are some of the 30 blocks for the center of Judy Neimeyer's Japanese  fan quilt.

Nap time

Cecil is getting some nap time while I try to finish up the blocks on the Japanese fan quilt I started 3 or 4 years ago.  I am also waiting on the gas company to bring a tank and fix the gas logs... I hope.
It is a beautiful day so far a relief from the rainy dreary weather we have been having.

Bingo bash

This is the quilt top we made in 2016 at Sneads ferry retreat.  Everyone made blocks to play bingo then sewed sashings and put them together. I think it is stunning.

Bingo

Had a very productive two days sewing in Sneads ferry with M. Got to see friends at the church quilt group and talk about upcoming retreat. One of the things we do is play quilt bingo with certain colors of fabric for each of the columns and categories for the blocks in the columns. When we are tired of the game we all work on black and white precut sashings and put everything together for a stunning quilt top. True fun.
