A Lovely Year of Finishes - July FInish

A Lovely Year of Finishes

So happy to say that I more than completed my goal for the month of July.  Not only did I complete the pattern test top, which I love and used my special NJ fabrics for (pics soon I promise) but I finished 3 of the 4 memory quilts and they are already backed and basted!  The last one is partially sewn and the top will most likely be done by the end of the week.  


I chose a subway tile pattern for one of the quilts.  Honestly, I love that there are no corners to match with this pattern.   


Then, I used the same pieces from the subway tile quilt to make squares to go with the next two quilts.  I used strips in the one and patchwork squares in the other.


The last quilt that is in pieces is made with the strips, and longer ones, from the second quilt.  I tried to tie all the quilts together as much as possible without making them exactly the same.


Now to finish the last one and quilt them all.  Think I will make the deadline of August 17?

  2. I was actually thinking that if I made another quilt, that it would be the subway tile style. I like that. I agree with you, no corners to match up.
