It's finished...

I finished the "camo stars" quilt.  It is washed and properly crinkled 😉 and ready to be gifted to my coworker and his wife.  Although the color palette is not anything I would normally gravitate to, I'm pleased that I was able to pull a harmonious bunch of camoflauge inspired colors together from my scraps to construct the stars.  This quilt was made entirely from fabric I already had on hand so it also put a nice dent in my scraps which is always nice.  I hope the recipients like it and I hope that this new chapter in their  lives is filled with happiness .  I decided to incorporate the cowboy boots on the back instead of on the front as originally intended.  Its been so hot here 109 degrees.  Looks like I picked a great time to move to the desert.  I snapped pictures lickety split on the fence in the backyard.  Not the prettiest as the back yard is all dirt thus far ... it is likely to stay that way too... until it cools down 😜

Camo stars

It's hard to believe it has been over a month since my last post.  I have been busy between work and moving but thought I would update my progress on the retirement quilt I have been working on.  I have finished both tbe quilt top and backing  but have not basted or quilted it yet.  Here  is a picture.  I'm hoping to finish it this weekend and then I can get my barn door quilt finished and have it on my bed.😊
