Oh, my! I suddenly realized that May is nearly over with, and I haven't posted anything in a long time. It isn't that I've been doing nothing, just that I haven't slowed down enough to take photos and share the projects. We also did some traveling during the month, so the time seemed to fly by.
But I did complete this quilt which I titled "Lollapalooza!". I was drawn to the design because of the inter-woven look and the use of large pieces of fabric which showcase the prints. I was gifted several of the fabrics in the quilt, and had a few more in my stash to complete it. The pattern is a downloadable PDF called The Libby Quilt from Kitchen Table Quilting. Fun to make and pretty quick, too. Mine was quilted by Debra Johnston, longarm quilter at The Old Sewing Machine Man.
Our quilt guild, The Country Road Quilters, has a fun activity involving UFO projects and encouraging us to complete them. We listed 5 projects that are in various stages of completion-anything from only having fabric purchased and waiting to a quilt just in need of binding. Every other month, a number from 1 to 5 is drawn at a guild meeting, and that is the project from our list that is due two months hence. The participation has been wonderful, and quilters are getting their projects done! Myself included.
June is coming up and I hope to share a couple more quilting and crafting projects... like a fun ice-dye day.
