Design wall quilt is finished, now, have to quilt a little!!!

I am really pleased on how this little quilt turned out, loved playing with the fabrics, and the pin stripe for the little border makes it, not to feminine with just a spec of masculinity in it....


Sorry for the wrinkles, but had to take the picture fast before someone used it for a carpet!!! (see the shoes)

    Today I can say "thirty years in waiting"  is finished I had made a queen size quilt with these fabrics and I missed it so that I had started another but put it away for a rainy day.    So happy that I found the box many years later and was able to get it finished at last!! A nine patch or simple irish chain, so off I went with my box, and this is what it turned into.... I am so pleased, and it is big enought to use on the dining room table. I have a few squares left, maybe enought to make a place setting or something. The quilting design is from My Creative Stitches  Monday Patch Vacation time is over and we are back to our art!! Two of the gals have finished their giant wedding ring, one is ready to be quiltied and another is alread to go on the table.  Quilting in lines, it turned out really nice. Another double wedding ring but traditional  still lots of pieces to sew, but it is going to be beautiful ! Someone is starting her birds, ravens...
