I really enjoyed looking at the different blocks and what you chose as quilting design. Since you're using so much thread, is it time to graduate to cones? Really wonderful job--so glad to see this one!

I have finished my first big quilt this year.

Boy am I glad that's done. I really like the mussel shell border design but it takes forever and uses a mountain of thread. I used 2 full bobbins on each border. Each block has a different design. All very 'organic' and not very perfect but I doubt my niece will be complaining. It's for her 21st birthday which is on the 28th of this month. I can't believe I got this done ahead of time. Now back to my reels quilt and the BOM. Happy quilting everybody.

Eeeccckkk! This means it will soon be my turn. Got to get the sewing room cleaned up and cleared out. Congratualtions, Nancy and good luck Renata! Yeah us! This is so exciting.

Thanks, Lois! I'm actually excited as I'm thinking through my little strategic plan before the quilt arrives. But somewhere in the flood of thoughts that came into my mind was that time will fly and soon it will be yours!

Thanks for the good wishes! I really did not get to clean my sewing room because I thought the quilt was coming closer to the end of May.

I was wrong! Oh well...
