I'm back from the Stitchin' Friends group meeting. About 12 of us showed up. We had lots of fun, as usual, and I got a good bit finished.
I finished the last row of my Thoughts of Christmas quilt. This was supposed to finished in May . . . not too far behind.
I laid out all the rows for the first time to see how they looked . . . . The pattern calls for the rows to be sewn one on top of the other. Since I never follow the directions, I have decided to put black sashing in between each row so it doesn't look quite so busy.
I also started my Christmas Star Trip quilt. All the pieces have been cut for quite some time. We won't mention how long. Of all the Star Trips I have made, I think this is my favorite color combination.
After a little lunch, I'm off to the sewing room to unpack my bags and work on the Star Trip some more. Hope to post again in a few hours. Come back and visit!
Blessings, Cathi

I don't usually go for row or sampler type quilts, but I would definitely and happily have that one in my house.
Oh and ignore that Paulette, she's just trying to make me out to be a martinet cos she's feeling guilty about playing hookey! (giggle)
I love your row quilt - I've been thinking of making one since all my friends have already done so. the problem is that I didn't care for the one they made. But I love this Christmas one - I could maybe design one of my own. blessings, marlene
