I was hoping to finish the machine appliqué on this quilt by today and to then start on the hand quilting the following week. Actually the appliqué was done in about a day and a half, and I am about 90% done with the quilting as well. I astonished even myself at how fast this quilt is coming together. I’m not going to show you the full view until the binding is applied. I may even make a beaded fringe. I’ve got some lovely beads in this color palette.

It's completely adorable, like a pretty birthday present you can't wait to open!
I love this quilt. Wish I could work that quickly.
Sometimes you get just the right project that keeps you motivated to finish it at record speed. Like a good book you don't want to put down!
it looks so pretty i cant wait to see the whole thing!
I love the sneak peak, I went looking but did not find the full picture. It’s late and I should be sleeping, could you point me in the right direction. I marvel at your creativity, paints, beads, fabric, you name it, it would seem. I love blogs,
Hi Darcy,
I guess the top did go quickly, but then I decided to hand quilt it (which I finished in pretty good time). After that I got distracted and moved on to other things … until now! So stay tuned, that quilt is in this month’s lineup.
Thanks! The reason you couldn’t find it is because I actually just finished that quilt a few days ago. “The speed of light” = 1 year, that’s a good one!
