Grandmother's Flower Garden Done!!!!

Yes!!!.....lol it is finished, and didn't take nearly as long as I expected it would.  This quilt measures 
112"x123"and I don't know how many little hexies!!!  But, it was easy to hand quilt...finished it yesterday just before supper. I spent the evening binding it, since I was alone last night...hubby is out of town for a couple of nights.
The back is neat..looks like chicken wire...lol.  Today I got the last one needed to be done for Christmas in the frames. This Log Cabin was pieced quite some time ago, and saved as this gift.
I got a couple of blocks quilted, then a couple of friends stopped in for a tea with me. Wasn't that nice...since I was alone?

WIP Wednesday

Here we are in November already!!!!  Linking up to Monika http://needleandthreadnetwork.blogspot.com/.  This week, I am working like crazy to get quilts out.

I did finish machine quilting the three jelly roll quilts for a customer...two or three more coming any day.
Here they are....
I have this customer quilt in the frames being hand quilted now....about 1/3 finished.  I added borders to this Grandmothers Flower Garden, which is hand pieced.
I had a log cabin dropped off yesterday to be hand quilted....that makes three besides this flower garden here now.  But I love it!!!!!
Things are pretty well finished up outside for fall anyway.....so, quilting it is!!!!!  Ok.....I do have to clean house once in awhile, I guess.......
And I am working on my blocks for this months 100 club quilt with our fabric shop. Here is the quilt I am piecing, but mine will be queen size.
Well friends, I think that is it for this week.  Have a good one!

WIP Wednesday

Hey folks...well, my giveaway was a hit...had two lucky winners!!!!! Now my works in progress...
Today, I have a bad cold...but still plugging away.  I just finished hand quilting this large bedsize quilt for a customer...
I've done a few in these colours for her...she loves the brights!!!!! Next to go in the frames to be hand quilted is this one...another border was added since this picture.
This measures 110x125 inches.  The grandmothers flower garden was hand pieced by the lady's grand mother...I added the borders to make it bigger for her.
I finished putting this cat quilt together a few days ago for a customer...
She had most of it pieced, but got overwhelmed, and sent it to me to finish and hand quilt..it will be quilted after the flower garden. The lady who picked this finished one up a week ago ...
Brought a Bargello today for me to hand quilt. I haven't taken a picture of it yet, but soon I'll post one for you.
I also have the third jelly roll quilt ready to machine quilt....here are the first two.
 And
Now finished..... Well, that's it for me this week folks! Trying to beat this cold and get back outside to do some work.  Have a great week!!!!
