I am happy to report that I’ve finished my “A Vintage Christmas Sampler” by Kansas Troubles Quilters. This has been a Quilt-A-Long on Facebook this summer. The introduction dropped the day I left for Kansas City and I picked up the kit the morning we got back. My top is smaller at 81″ x 92″ as I cut my borders smaller. I have a ton of fabric left as we started with a FQ+ yardage.
Back in May I went to a pop-up quilt shop in the New Orleans area and purchased what was left on a bolt of a green fabric from the KTQ Gooseberry Lane line. I have enough to make the backing with a little over a yard left over. That is today’s project as I want to get this quilted this weekend.
Also on the agenda for this long weekend is quilting my SIL’s Vintage Christmas Sampler. She finished hers last Saturday and got the backing pieced earlier this week. She also has a smaller panel quilt ready to be quilted. That makes 3 quilts.
I have 2 customer quilts waiting to be quilted and I would really like to say Cascades was done this month – it still lacks borders.
Will I get it all done? Who knows? Stay tuned.
I see the Christmasy Parts now! Congrats! Great finish You have a few days left of August…
