I have a finish. Well, 2 finishes, actually.
2 T-shirt quilts for the sons of a co-worker.
The sons are grown, but the parents wanted quilts made with their shirts from activities when the boys were growing up.
I agreed to do these the end May and was given the shirts then. I posted about them earlier. They were to be Christmas gifts. I did get them finished for Christmas, though it took me much longer than I expected. The parents were really excited when they saw the finished quilts. I haven't heard how the boys liked them. I am hoping that when I go back to school my co-worker lets me know.
I am working on another project, although it is too larger for my design wall. I have it draped on my quilt machine for now.
This is the base for a Twister quilt. I love batiks. I have used all batiks in this quilt. My Christmas gift from my husband was to go to the quilt store and buy whatever I wanted. I did show some restraint, but it was hard! I got a package of Hoffman Bali batik 10 inch squares, plus some fat quarters for another quilt I am working on.
I am using the Hoffman batiks, that I cut into 5 inch squares (they didn't have 5 inch packages at the quilt store) plus more from my stash in this quilt.
I don't think I am going to be able to get this quilt top finished before I go back to work. I am still working on the base, not even half sewn. Then I need to cut it using the Twister tool and sew those together. That's ok. I would hate to run out of something to work on.
Ha, like that will happen soon. :)
