Here's the primitive doll quilt I gave you a sneak peak of a couple of posts ago. I signed up for a swap and this quilt now resides with Dorothy in Australia.
This was a quilt that Cheri started online. I had vines down the center but really wasn't that thrilled with how mine looked so I took them off, quilted it and called it done. I'd call this one primitive too!
I took out my Blind man's Fancy blocks and plan on working on them. I had the centers made I just need to finish the blocks. The two on the left are the newest ones. The original quilt has flying geese sashing. I'm sure that will take me some time to do. The blocks are fun and very random as far as colors.
Look what came today. Three quilts from my quilter!! I guess I'll be working on some binding too.
Have a wonderful quilty week!

The quilt you sent Dorothy is beautiful, I bet she loves it. I finally made a dent in my room so I can work in it again.
Debbie
I saw the doll quilt you made on the recipient's blog. She certainly received a good one.
I remember those Blind Man's Fancy blocks. How many blocks do you plan on making?
Lots of lovely things to look at today :0) I like it when you work on your Blindman's fancy blocks - I love all those hst's.
I can't wait to see what comes out of the box!!
Love the cheddar in the doll quilt! Plough, I can't wait to see the quilts in the box after being quilted!
I love the quilt you have sent and all the others too.
You make beautiful quilts.
Love visiting your blog
Christine
I never thought I was much of a cheddar girl but I love your use of it in the top quilt. I might try using it soon....thank you for the inspiration!
Your quilts are all beautiful, love the doll quilt what a wonderful gift to receive.
Wendy
I LOVE the mustard colored doll quilt!!!
The primitive quilt looks so great. The cheddar just does things to you!
Your Soot & Ashes is perfect ... now to find mine ...
Blind Man's Fancy blocks looks quite intense, will follow your progress.
Your quilts are always lovely. Glad to see that other quilters bounce from project to project. I'm always doing. We just have so much to do.
Lori, Your Blind Man's Fancy blocks are really amazing. When do we get to see the quilt in the box???
I'm having my first giveaway this week. Hope you'll stop by and take a look.
Gail :)
Your doll quilt is just great, and I hope to see the quilts in the box soon!
Cute doll quilt - lucky recipient! I like what you did with the black and white blocks - different. Those BMF blocks are so cheerful. Can't wait to see what's in the box!
I'm like you Lori - bouncing from one project to another. I have my Cheri quilt all pieced, but haven't started a bit on the wool applique yet - I want to use red wool, but am afraid the dye might bleed out when I wash it - so I'm procrastinating about it! LOL
Binding a quilt is one of my very favorite things - hope you enjoy that part too!
I really love this doll quilt with cheddar and your Blind Man's fancy blocks too. XOXO
I love the quilt you made for Dorothy, cheddar rules! I'm glad you're working on the Blind Man's Fancy, I love that quilt a lot.
This box with quilts makes me very curious! I love the blind man's fancy blocks! Great colors!
Sad But True Story:
Your first couple posts on your Soot and Ashes progress inspired me to make one, too. I made one in blues and greens on cream and was deliberating over adding vines or not when my dog found it so irresistibly attractive that she stole it off the design wall and ate a fist-sized hole in it! I'm hoping a little maturity will cure her of her need for more fiber in her diet. That and a gate on my sewing room.
P.S. I love your Blind Man's Fancy blocks.
Okay, I'm going to have to stop reading your blog Lori because I want to make everything you show!
I just love the little doll quilt you made and the Blind Man's Fancy blocks.
The Blind Man's Fancy blocks peak my interest! And Dorothy is a lucky recipient of your doll quilt. Binding~~means finishes!
Can hardly wait to see your quilted quilts!! Putting on the binding is my most favorite part of a quilt, love feeling the fabrics as I go around the outside of it. Weird I know, LOL!
Wow - the cheddar in the little quilt really does wonderful things! What size are the hst's in Blind Man's Fancy? It's going to be awesome.
Beautiful patchwork and applique! Lots of fun play there. I like the blind man's fancy blocks--they remind me of the Roll Roll Cotton Boll that Bonnie Hunter was doing.
Love all the little quilts you have been working on! You are like me..I never work on just ONE project at a time...bouncing around is a great way to describe it!
Ohh, Ahh that Blind Mans' quilt is going to be amazing. Love the colors. Your swap quilt is fab, the more I see cheddar being used, the more I like it. Cant wait to see the quilts that need binding.
Love all what you have done. I am going to enjoy seeing those quilts tucked away in that box after binding.
well what a lucky girl Dorothy is what a beautiful little quilt oh that cheddar just makes me smile
3 quilts back !!!! wow great for you I just did a binding today...I have a few that need binding too :)
enjoy your week!
Kathie
oh by the way you may, just may have inspired me to take out my BMF blocks and finish that quilt once and for all too as soon as the courthouse steps are done!
Kathie
ooohhhh, love that cheddar on the doll quilt. I guess I would "ooohhh" over the sewing of bindings, I kind of like doing them. After all it is more completed quilts : )
Happy Stitching,
Cheri
Looks like you are keeping busy! That cheddar in the doll quilt is wonderful. Enjoy!
Dorothy is a lucky girl! I love your Soot and Ashes. I was so tempted to do that, too, but already too much on my plate. I just love your Blind Man's Fancy colors!
Oh your doll quilt you sent Dorothy is wonderful too! I love it! And I absolutely love your version of Soot and Ashes. I wasn't very crazy about the vines either but couldn't figure out how to change it. Yours is perfect. Can't wait to see your finished quilts!
Me too, I seem to be jumping from one project to another. The little quilt is fantastic. I've still have to finish my Cheri quilt.
Lori your quilts are beautiful. Makes me want to make more doll quilts. Hugs.
Lori all the quilts (and blocks) are so pretty.
I have been jumping from thing to thing myself. I need to focus and get something done.
Happy stitching
Love your little quilts!
Your BMF blocks look stunning!
have fun binding. I actually love to do binding.
Im so glad tht you stopped by to visit me so that i could be lead back to your lovely blog. Wow! You have really been busy! I adore your dear jane quilt. I have been leaning back to working on mine. Ive only just begun, nothing really, but have hope to finish it in the future.
I love your work! Thanks for the inspirstion! Xo
I love the cheddar in the first quilt......beautiful :) What a fun mail day for you! Enjoy putting on the bindings....that is one of my favorite parts :)
All sew wonderful, absolutely in love with your color sense....soot&ashes is beautiful even without vines.... cheri
