Need to get cracking!!
HI Y'all! I have just a little bit to go on this quilt...I hung it back up in the closet about 2 years ago, not quite finished...I am finishing it this week!! The story is...I found the book at the library that had this sampler in it. Another lady (unknown), and I took turns borrowing the book back and forth...until my quilt was together!! I hope hers is done too! High time this baby is finished!!!
It is 2:41 in the morning...awake...wide awake!!! I will sure be glad when the thyroid is not raging anymore...I need my beauty sleep in a bad way, LOL!!!
Have a super weekend all!!!

Stunning!! I'm glad you are working to finish it, it deserve that, so do you.
I agree, it is stunning. So many hours of work but what a result!
I hope that thyroid settles down and your can get some sleep.
Hello Julie, what a beautiful quilt...is it the final border...that will finish it..would be interesting to learn if the other lady has finished the quilt as well.....Hugs Lyn
Hi Julie! What a beautiful quilt! I'm glad you are finishing it. Do you remember the name of the book? Hope you are sleeping now. Have a great weekend!
Your applique quilt is absolutely stunning!!!! Fancy hiding that one away LOL!!! Glad you decided to get it out and finish it!!! Have you thought of putting it in a Show?
Very pretty!!!
One word:
BEAUTIFUL
Love it. You really need to finish it! Did you hand applique? That quilt is calling to be finished and shown off! Just stunning!
wonderful quilt! How will you quilt it?
Amazing work my friend. What's left to do? Maybe it's obvious but I didn't sleep well last night and by golly I don't see it?
I think I recall seeing that quilt when you got it together. It is a beauty. Yes...it is a good idea to get it done!!! I hope your thyroid-med-driven sleep issues resolve soon, too.
Not MY usual style or colors, but great workmanship. How big is it? Where will you use it? If you have the wall space, it would make an amazing wall hanging!
Hope you can sleep soon. Been there and can empathize with you.
What a lovely quilt, I just love the applique, and the fabrics and colours are just gorgeous.
Thank you so much for sharing.
*hugs*

That is a fantastic quilt! I'm so glad it is out of the closet and going to be finished!
What a beautiful quilt! Good for you finally getting it finished! :0)
So glad to see you are finishing this beautiful quilt...too much work and too pretty to hang in the closet! Insomnia...hate it! Hope you get a good nights sleep soon...take care.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who puts almost finished quilts away for a rainy day!! Quite stunning and deserves to be a finished project.
A beauty! Just send it my way if you get tired of it. LOL!
The Hugs & Kisses BOM that I am working on has almost that same border! Your quilt is a beauty!
That is one gorgeous quilt....Isn't it nice to welcome an old friend and maybe this is the time to finish.
It's beautiful!!
This is such a pretty quilt!
Hope you get some sleep!
Wow! I'm glad you have decided to finish this one :)
It's gorgeous!
How many more of these beauties do you have hanging in your closet?
Hope you start to feel better soon.
You know what, Julie, .... I have run out of words to express my admiration for you. This quilt is STUNNING (yes, one more time in all of the stunning comments you have received so far :d)!! Your drive, motivation, and accomplishments contiually amaze me. Hugs, dear girl. I hope you eventually get some sleep. I was told once that "you won't die from lack of sleep"; however, I felt like maybe that person slept great every night of their lives *grrr* and had no clue what he was talking about. There have been times I thought I MIGHT die if I didn't get SLEEP! :)
Wow, what a great quilt.
Have a nice weekend

Wow! That's not a "simple" quilt at all - you deserve a few simple ones after this heirloom! So sorry you are not sleeping well - I have trouble off and on too - it stinks!! I don't mind so much on weekends, but when I have to get up and go to work, it's a problem.
I also meant to say - wouldn't it be such a coincidence if you found "the other woman"? LOLOL!
That quilt is GORGEOUS! Get crackin'! I want to see it all finished! LOL Too pretty to sit in a closet....please share pics when you get it done.

Fantastic quilt! But how did you know my birthday was coming up...in the Fall...and that pink was my favorite color? LOL
I can't wait to see it finished and quilted!
Your quilt is absolutely beautiful! WOn't you be glad when it is finished?
Julie, now you must hand quilt that quilt you know. Crosshatching in the background. It is georgous. You are really doing some wonderful quilts.

That is such a beautiful quilt. I was going to practice some machine applique and my machine went buggy, figures. Have to wait for it to be checked and some new upgrades.

Oh wow...that quilt is amazing!!! No dumming down here...
I'm impressed you finished this one especially since you made it from a library book. Great job!
Absolutely gorgeous, can you remember the name of the book Julie? This makes me want to get all my unfinished ones out! Love the colors, and love your scrappy quilts.

That is one lovely quilt - too nice to stay hidden. Love that zingy green border it really sets off the quilt.

Beautiful top Julie, love the pinks/greens.
Now this quilt is beyond awesome, Julie. It is definitely time for it to 'come out of the closet' for the world to see.
Gee, you should have called me and we could have had a quilting bee because I was up too!
Sorry you're not sleeping - prayers that it comes soon. What an amazing quilt...wow, wow, wow!!
What a beautiful quilt! Good for you. Do you remember the name of the book? I would love to get the pattern. vboschman@shaw.ca
What a gorgeous quilt! This will no doubt be your crowning achievement with quilting...The hours you have spent creating this lovely quilt, must have been countless...
