I've been a busy little beaver this fall and got a few things done recently. I had sold the table runner shown here called "Gung Hay Fat Choy" (Happy New Year in Chinese) so I made this one to replace it, hoping to sell this one as well.
Then I put together this wallhanging with multi-colored circles with black outlining around them and the black line in the back, like they're strung up on it. I quilted circles in the background with variegated thread. Once I got it finished I thought it kinda looks like an abacus, but not quite. So I named it "Not Quite an Abacus". I'll make a real abacus quilt one of these days.
I then sold this quilt, called "30 Degrees of Separation". It's named this because:
- the colors are sorted into warm on the left, cool on the right, representing temperature.
- they are circles, like degrees
- they are separated by an X quilted between each block
- there are 30 of them
So this is the replacement for the one I sold, similar to the table runner above, we'll see if this one sells too. This is the fifth one I've made of this pattern ... every time I make one it sells, so that's a good sign of a winner!
Finally is a wall-hanging I made to go in my bedroom. My bed quilt is a broken star in blues and greens with teal between them, so this should match nicely. It's paper-pieced 6" pineapple blocks. I hate paper-piecing, but I love the results it gives and this turned out great. I hand quilted feathers randomly all over it in dark blue thread. It's called "Chillin' with the Pineapples".
What great quilts!! It's no wonder we don't hear from you often. Blessings, Peg
