Finished

 Yeehaw!
Look at us!
2 posts in one week and neither is a giveaway!
From this
 
to this....
This cute little quilt is part of my fabulous bartering system 
I have going with a friend. 
And now my friend is having grandchildren 
and you know what that means???
More hair color for me!!!  
The new mama requested the colors and gave me an old quilt of hers that had a WAY harder circular thing going on so this is my interpretation of her quilt. :)
It's raggy.  
I'm loving it. 
Awesome yellow fabric here.
I've also been on a binding streak.
Can I just tell you how much I love 
putting my new little label on the backs???!!! 
 
Now it just needs a name and I'm done!
Any suggestions??

Big Reveal

Happy Belated Birthday/Graduation!

Lizzie (my younger daughter) made this quilt for her sister.

She just finished binding it.

It's done.

Bella picked out the fabrics, but hasn't seen the completed quilt

(she's back east this summer).

It's got quite a few of the Tufted Tweets,

Nicey Jane & a few others.

~
So Bella, what do you think?!!

Is it college worthy?

We lovingly call it the lava lamp quilt.
Lizzie used the Accuquilt 6.5" Tumbler die.


These tumbler quilts go together so fast and the pieces are cut perfectly.


It makes the whole process go a lot smoother.


This is also her 4-H Quilting project.

Her 4-H paperwork is done!

Report & everything! Hurray!

This is a duvet cover I whipped up.

May I just say, it has a button closures, and ties on the inside to hold the comforter in place. It's a home dec -- Tea Garden. I liked working with it so much, I got a little carried away, but I'll save that for later.
