Rags N Quilts

Well, among several other things, I’m making small leaves for the edge of “Harvest Moon”  this is one of those edges that will take way longer than doing the rest of the quilt, but worth it in the end to achieve the look I want.

As you can see, I have a lot left to do.

Another thing I’m working on is Mother’s quilt.  I am embarrassed to say I’ve had this one on my shelf waiting for nearly 2 years!  And Mary had it a year before me! Mother probably wonders if she’ll ever see it again, LOL!  Well, never fear Mother, it’s finally being done.  I’m on  mission to get it finished so I can take it with me when I go to Virginia the first week of December for Mother’s birthday.

I’m using Quilters Dream wool batting….but no dense background fills (yes, you heard me)  it’s a bed quilt and it needs to keep some of that loft for warmth.  These are the tools I’m using in addition to some freehand work:

My Circle Lord Aztec template…2 different motifs come from this template.

Tracey Browning’s no frills 3″ clamshell template

And of course, Janet-Lee’s favorite ruler for all the SID

And here is a look at the outer border and inner border

The cornerstone

And one of the alternate blocks

I’m just getting started, so there’s lots more to do.

I’m still working on stitching down all the appliqué on the frogs & lizards and continuing to work on my quilt for for another project…secret for now.

What are you up to?
