February Donation Top Finished

The Aztec blocks have been sewn into rows and into a finished flimsy. I like it better than I thought I would when I was laying it out. At 42" by 54", it's a good lap size.

Sorry for indoor pics, the weather is much too windy for outdoor photos. DH installed some kind of new light bulbs in my sewing room and the light is really good in there now. These photos were taken with the new light, and the color came out really true to life.

I have a lot going on the rest of this month so I don't know if I'll get this one quilted in February or not. I'm scheduled to give a Cut and Shuffle Quilts lecture and trunk show on Monday, and I have weekend plans with family, so today I have to get organized and packed for the trunk show.

(Cut and Shuffle Quilts is the book I wrote a couple years ago, featuring a fun, easy piecing technique and several patterns.)

  2. I like your new light! It makes those colors look great, especially if it is as gray in St. Louis as it is in Delaware. Good luck with the trunk show and lecture!

  6. Looks great all stitched together! I really like how the solids seem very smooth and calm next to the wilder Aztec-y prints. Good luck with your trunk show!

  7. Nice finish! What are the lightbulbs hubby put in? I can't get any decent photos inside.
