Latest Quilt Finish

 I am pleased beyond words that I have finished this quilt in time for the Herring Run Quilt Guild’s upcoming show. This top was strictly from stash, and it did make a dent in my batik leftovers. My original intention had been to make this a donation quilt, but truly, the colors are so calming that I decided to keep this quilt for myself. There are still enough batik scraps, and I am in the midst of creating a second quilt which I will donate. Besides this quilt, I will have another quilt and my wool applique Americana Tablerunner in the show. This quilt was back from the long armer two weeks ago, but it took awhile to sew on the binding and add hanging sleeves to two of the quilts. Whew! Finally they are ready. 

I also finished the first month of the Stitching with the Housewives Blooming Roots cross stitch project. The two pieces took longer to stitch than I had expected, and I still have a bit of painting to do on the display piece, but I will show it in my next post. 

Hope you are enjoying this lovely fall weather.
