Quilted Progress
22 Feb 2013
One great advantage to all the snow this winter is being stuck inside. It’s the perfect excuse to cook and craft to your heart’s content. I spent the better part of the two foot snow storm, a few weeks ago, finishing up the squares on my quilt.
Once they were all pressed, I started to assemble the strips for the top (YAY!) This is always such an exciting part of the process. It’s where the “rubber meets the road” so to speak. I am always anxious to see if my colors and pattern choices are going to work together.
After arranging all the pieces on the floor, I am feeling very confident that this quilt is going to be exactly what I wanted! All that is left is sewing together the strips and making the sandwich! I’d really like to spend the money and get this professionally quilted. Once I have the top together, I will know better. If it comes out as nice as I am thinking, I better start saving my pennies!
Are you working on any quilted projects? Please share!
Happy Quilting!

That looks great ! I envy you, I seem to have so much of a problem getting to the point you’re at unless I just do simple squares. I’m working on a log cabin right now, and boy do I wish I had done squares with less pieces! :) Good luck on yours, can’t wait to see the final product.

Love the colors and the pattern! You seem to accomplish so much. I am working on a baby quilt right now. I hope it’s done in time for the new baby.
