April Completions

I was able to complete 4 quilts in April along with the taxes.  I almost could have bragged on 5 but I needed 2 more days.  I also completed the quilting on my Tossed 9 Patch but have not even started on the binding.

The first quilt pictured in the video is my UFO #10.  It was a 2010 New Year's Day Mystery Quilt hosted by Planet Patchwork - the quilt is called "Have a Nice Trip".  This is the first quilt I used a mono nylon thread on and I was very pleased with the results.  Allot of the patterns I used in the blocks came with my ProStitcher.

The second quilt is my UFO #4 - Sailboat Quilt.  I drew the blocks in EQ7 and built the quilt from that point.  The panto I used is from Anne Bright called Sailin'.

The third quilt in the video is my Un-named Quilt which I also drew in EQ7. Easy quilt to assemble. The panto I used is called Bountiful Feathers by Lorien Quilting.

And the last one pictured was the first one done in April - the Charm Quilt.  On this one I also went with designs from Anne Bright;  in the center is Soft and Sweet b2b design with Soft and Sweet Striped for the border - the stop border has a design I bought from Intelligent Quilting called Feather Twirl.

This is the quilt that almost made it for April - it's my UFO #1.  The pattern is by Eleanor Burns and is called Double Pinwheel.  The blocks I assembled I think in 2003 but had run out of the cream fabric for the inner border and never went to get more.   I pulled the quilt out last year and decided to add the burgundy fabric for the missing border, kind of happy I did since I think it really adds to the quilt.  The panto in the center and also used in the outer border blocks is by Anne Bright and called Wildflower and the border is her Wildflower Wings.  This quilt gives me a good start to brag about my May Completions.

On to the next which includes UFO #9 Cathedral Stars plus more.
