Wonderland Honeybun Quilt is Quilted

Before I hurt my foot I managed to finish quilting my Wonderland Honeybun quilt!  I LOVE the way the quilting turned out on this.  I think it really made the quilt.  It was quilted using a variegated tan King Tut thread.  

Here's a closer picture of the quilting. 

Now to figure out the binding.  I think I'm leaning towards a red, but I'm not sure.  I would like to use something from my stash, but I haven't been able to find anything yet.  I might have to take this one with me to a store sometime soon to find something to match.

Ring Bearer Pillow

This weekend was my husband's cousin's wedding.  A couple of months prior I was asked to make the ring bearer pillow out of the mother of the bride's wedding gown.  She had a large sash on her dress and I used that to make the pillow.

The sashing had some beautiful details that I wanted to keep, so I made the pillow a rectangle.  I waited to show this because the bride didn't see the pillow until last week.

Here's two picture of the beautiful wedding.

In other news, I haven't been doing much quilting since last week when I broke my toe and tore some ligaments in my foot.  I'm in a brace until next week, so hopefully I'll be back to quilting soon.

Basted and Ready to Go

A while back I posted a picture of a quilt I had up on my design wall to work on placement of the blocks.  I moved a few blocks around and pieced the top together.  This weekend I based the quilt and began quilting it this week.  Made using a Wonderland honeybun.

The lighting was terrible, so the colors aren't exactly accurate, but we've had rain for the past 4 days, so I haven't been able to take advantage of any good natural light.  

I began quilting it with some straight lines lengthwise about 1/4" apart.  I'm loving the quilting.  I wasn't too crazy about this quilt before hand, but now that I've began quilting it, it's really making the top.  It's amazing with quilting can do to a top.  I'll post more pictures of the quilted top soon.

Designer Mystery BOM - Block Three

I finished the third block in the Fat Quarter Shop Designer Mystery BOM.  This one was the easiest to piece together out of the three so far.

And here are the first three blocks all together.

I'm loving this quilt more and more.  Every block is just so cute.  I can't wait to see what comes next.

Radiant Star BOM - Block 3

Last night I finished making block 3 of the Carol Doak Simply Radiant Star BOM.

I love the blue squares in this block.  I think this came out cute.

Here are all three blocks together.  I really like how they look all together.  I'm using a fat quarter bundle of Blush for the entire quilt.

And I leave you with some of the goodies that I got at the Lowell Quilt Festival last weekend.  I got a lot of great stuff on sale.
