Finish No. 7 - 1st Q

This is last of the five pillowcases on my 1st Quarter List...

But all in all I finished ten (nine in the picture) sets!  Like I said earlier...a pillowcase bonanza!

Some Stats for the quilt:
Size: Standard Pillow
Quilting: None
Started: 03/31/18
Finished: 03/31/18 (It was a very productive Saturday!)

This makes finish #7 for the 1st Quarter...and 13 remaining on the 1st Quarter FAL List.

Finish No. 6 - 1st Q

This is the 1st of the last two of the five pillowcases on my 1st Quarter Finish-Along list...whew that was a mouthful...

Let's just call them the pillowcases that match my Feathered Bed quilt (I finished in 2016) made with all sorts of Denise Schmidt fabrics..

Or just the green plaid pillowcases...

Some Stats for the quilt:
Size: Standard Pillow
Quilting: None
Started: 03/31/18
Finished: 03/31/18 (nothing like waiting until the 11th hour!)
Fabric Used: Denise Schmidt and some basic brown cross-hatch from JoAnn's

This makes finish #6 for 2018...and 14 remaining on the 1st Quarter FAL List.

Finish No. 5 - 1st Q

This is my Modern Plus quilt...I L-O-V-E how it turned out!

This is the third (but second finished) quilt I quilted on my Gammill.  I tried to do straight lines quilting, and quickly embraced the idea of straight-ish line quilting!

I love it!  By the bottom of the quilt, I was much straighter...and quite a bit more consistant in the spacing.

After seeing Angela Walters' leafy meander, I tried that in each of the pluses...again, practice makes...well, better.  I used matching variegated thread in the pluses...really fun looking, but the changing of thread was kinda a drag...and my least favorite part of tying off the threads, well let's just say that doesn't always happen!

Some Stats for the quilt:
Size: 67X70
Quilting: on my Gammill, staright-ish lines and leafy meander
Started: 09/10/17
Finished: 03/30/18

This makes finish #5 for the 1st Quarter...and 15 remaining on the 1st Quarter FAL List.
