I recently had some time to hand quilt these, and bind them. Except the rail fence quilt...that was quilted by my friend Kristy!! It is a gift for a patient. The quilting made it so pretty that it is hard to give up, LOL! The table runner was made from orphan blocks gifted to me...and the red work quilt is made from embroidered blocks that are at least ten years old. Hurrah for some finishes!!
This itty-bitty flower quilt is one of several flower quilts that I have made...I love flowers so, so much, and this is just made up of pieces and parts. In fact...the whole quilt was made because I had a little piece of stem leftover...and I made the whole rest of the little quilt was fashioned around that stem, so I could use it up!
I have a fun, lovely friend, Audrey, of Quilty folk blog fame. She recently posted about a friend who posted all her projects, perfect or not. I immediately thought she must be posting about me...HAHAHAHAHA!! Of course she probably wasn't.....but...this quiltlet is just the best example of non perfection. It is just about 6 inches wide...but one side is a whole half inch longer than the other! Bwwahahahaha! I have no idea how I did that, or how is fits together.
BUT IT IS FINISHED!
onward!!!

No, no, no...it's not a quilty mistake...it's a design feature. ;o)
Congrats on so many finishes!!
I recall many sweet flower quilts that you have made over the years.
Your little green quilt does not appear to be wonky. Just a great use of leftovers.
That little flower is dancing and waving! I love it. I read your blog all of the time but I rarely comment.
They are all so charming and sewn with love, who could fault that? xxoxo
What great fun finishes!! and you know how that happens? Gremlins! yep - they don't like perfection... ha ha ha - at least that;s my story!
Perfection!? What's that? It doesn't exist at my house.
Congrats on all the finishes... perfect and not!
I love all your finishes! The comment about Audrey's un-named quilter who shows poor work made me laugh too! I was/ am so sure it is me. Tho Audrey kindly says Not. I thought your''mistake on the little teal triangles quilt was the uneven borders,lol. That was and is a design aspect. So sweet, I love teeny tiny quilts.
lizzy gone to the beach...
That beautiful little flower is calling Spring. I know because I can hear it. :^D
Love your finishes. (I have one that is crooked and I don't understand how I did it. hehehe!)
You know what all those finishes mean, right? You can now start something new! YAY! ;^)
Like all the finishes! Looking good - none of us are perfect, but we always try! LOL
I can't tell that one end is longer than the other. Nice finishes.
Awesome finishes. I love the fact that you made a whole quilt just to use up a piece of stem you had previous made. You're a special one of a kind quilter just like the ones you make.
You're so funny! Not you at all. Love your work, all the imperfections and little things you do that make your quilts so alive!:)
Perfect quilts in their own humble quirky way!
