Quilt Tops.....

At present there are 12 quilt tops (finished) in my cupboard awaiting quilting .....  and I would like to get them done..... especially since I have others in progress, and still others as kits, and still others that I want to do.... hmmmmm

This is a folder that youngest daughter gave me at Christmas (I think she may be psychic)



This is a scrappy rail fence quilt.... 


I used fabric I bought in Bali for this curved ruler quilt....


this is a sweet Natalie Bird design quilt.... just loved doing all those little stitcheries


These churn dash blocks were from a Block swap group a few years back....


My Sylvia's Bridal sampler us Tuesday girls each made in different colours...


and Splendid Sampler which again us Tuesday girls sewed together....


My scrappy stars made in Papillon fabrics, one of my all time favourite ranges and I wish they would bring back ...


I have already made one quilt with my 9 patch from a swap a few years ago... this uses up the last of the blocks....


this was a sweet 1930's style layer cake.... I made mistakes with my cutting but it is still a pretty quilt....


chevron made with scraps from a range... or maybe charm packs... anyway it is sweet and happy....


Natures Journey done in a Stitch-a-long..... done in French General (not sure which range)


... and my sweet Alphabet bear (bear designs by Michelle Ridgeway).  I had 5" strips of this pretty range (no idea what is was called) 


So there we go.....  now I've put these out there I hope that will make me get them done....

Will you show us yours???????

Righto, Gotto Go... off to make blocks with the Tuesday girls... for another quilt!

  1. Those are all beautiful quilts, definitely need to be finished so you can put them out.

  2. I agree with Debbie! You need to get those quilted and out of the cupboard. Get busy, girl! Up until a couple of days ago, I only had two that needed to be quilted. But I've been cranking out some small stuff, so there are more now. But Other projects are taking priority right now.

  17. A very lovely pile of tops, Fiona! I especially like the Natalie Bird piece and am looking forward to seeing it finished :)

    We were just cleaning up my studio today in order to get under the bed for some boat maintenance work. I should snap some pics of my UFOs and post them up.

  18. What a beautiful collection Fiona, maybe you can make a list like Chooky did and cross one off as you do it. ...or we could keep asking how many you have done?😆😆

  19. What a great collection of quilt tops. Why not take the approach that you will do one a month for 2018, that way there is a lot less pressure to do them all at once. Good luck.
