So here is the top I'm calling
"Under the Big Top" I'm thrilled as all heck about it although I think I am adding a border later
Several ladies, including myself, swapped 3 sizes of hst for 9 months starting in 2010. You know what I say- good things can't be rushed! I love it!
Tonight we went into Bend and enjoyed the music of Pink Martini. It was nice to get away from the machines, relax and laugh a bit.
Wow, Lori--I love it, too! That is a whole slew of HSTs. What a wonderful accomplishment. Take a bow!!

ReplyDeleteOH, I like that so much..."Under the Big Top"!! Fabulous! Hey, glad you are having fun!
ReplyDeleteI have admired this quilt top since you first posted parts of it on your blog. I had forgotten that you traded triangle units. Are you thinking of adding a pieced border or a plain border?
ReplyDeleteWhat a top!! There is so much movement and color. The name is great as well :0)
ReplyDeleteLori!!! Under the Big Top is fabulous - applause, applause.
ReplyDeleteI've been enjoying all your project progress - way to go.
Have fun!
Wow! You saved the best for last. Gorgeous! Love the name :0) Glad to know I'm not the only one that saves HSTs from misc. projects and this is a great way to utilize them! What a joy to follow your progress this week, thank you for taking us along. Perfect ending with music and a fun evening... Sisters today. Life is good!
ReplyDeleteScrap quilts ae my faorite - great quilt. When we go on retreat we always take the four "F's" with us too: Friends - Fabric - Food - Fun. Looks like you got them all!!
ReplyDeleteI am really hoping that you will share the pattern for this fun masterpiece!. I remember seeing a vintage quilt like it several,years and it stopped me dead in my tracks.
ReplyDeletePleeez, Kathy
OMG!!!! I had not seen your quilt shop !!!You should not make deals ! Your quilts are lovely and if there is any way you can take them to a shop or to a craft fare to sell , it is what I would do with so many gorgeous quilts !!! If I had money I would buy as many as I could. WE just began a new job a month ago after being unemployed for a yr ..so we need to catch up.. Those quilts look valuable, you must take them elsewhere or advertise in a different place perhaps ??? Even Facebook ? Thanks, Izzy
