Finishes!

Three of them...


All it was waiting for was binding, so I finally caved and got someone else to do it...

For $5 a metre, I couldn't resist!

Thanks Lynn!!


Finally, at age 17 months, Mary has received her hexagon quilt.

She loves it.

Couldn't have done it without Lynn (binding) and Barb (custom machine quilting).

This last one is a direct copy of Nova's gorgeous quilt as you go number.


I followed her tutorial and I am so happy with the results. :-)

I used Echino fabrics and a green solid.


And did the same wonky - straight line quilting just like Nova did.


And curved corners, which I LOVE!!!!


Purple Echino spots on the back finish off what is a really lovely quilt.

Thanks for the inspiration Nova!
