I decided that this was going to be a very good year for finishing UFOs, so a while back I sent two tops off to North Dakota to be quilted by
Darcie, and YIPPEE! they arrived home a couple of days ago.
I'm going to drag this out a bit and only show you one of them now, because it's the smaller one and I got the binding sewn down this evening. This was a round robin from 2005 that I started with a little packet of hand-dyed fabric from a shop near Coff's Harbour, Australia. It measures about 40" square and it is so cheerful.
Darcie did a lovely job with freeform feathers in a slightly shiny multicolored thread.
I think this one might come to live in my office to liven up the dry setting!

It's gorgeous. Where is the shop near Coffs? My daughter lives half an hour from Coffs and I plan to go there next winter. Any quilt shop near there will be on my to-do list.
Having that quilt in an office would almost make me want to go to work. I said almost...:)
That one would really brighten up an office!

Hi! I saw your mini spring quilt in Quilting Gallery then came here.
Beautiful pattern. I love the springy color :)
Oooh! Pretty! Thank you for the kind compliments, Julie! Your quilts are always a joy to work with...as are you! ;-)
Thank you.
This is so colorful and happy. I love the contrast of the black against all those wonderful brights. It seems like a nice modern nod to Amish quilts.
