Friday Finishes






I finished 3 wallhangings this week...alright, so they only needed binding (for months) but they are done and they are way cuter 'in person' than these pics will show...I am a lousy pic taker.

The flower mantle one is not going to be placed like that...I just hung it over the picture frame till hubby can mount hooks for me...I loved making it and it's so not perfect...but it's fun and now I can see what size I need to make to go up there...bigger is better! The den is a hard room to do...it's dark and one whole wall is brick with the fireplace...it's the room we all hang in, drop stuff off in, don't care how it looks... but eveybody gravitates to this room...it's big, it leads outside, it's right off the kitchen/dr...it is way overdue a makeover...but maybe next spring!

The blue one is from Carol Doak Celebration block on her Yahoo groups site...been a long time finishing (when I get to the binding part...I put it down and then forget it..bad me).
The Wonky house one is from an old Foundation Piecer magazine...if you want to know, I'll look it up for you. Just glad to have gotten a few unfinished out of the PILE!

Their beautiful! My mom use to quilt, and I have some of the ones she did many years ago. I live in a tiny house so don't have much room to show them off except when their being used in the winter time as a blanket, etc. Let me know if I can help you in anyway getting around the county. It has sure grown in the 20 yrs I have been living here.

Those are GREAT! I especially love the one on the fireplace. I'm hoping to get my sewing room up and running again soon ~ I'm going thru withdrawls!!!
