This weekend was "finish off the project weekend". Or at least get started on finishing...So, I went to the store(s) and got batting, thread, fabric and stuff for finishing three projects. This is the first one - a wall hanging that I started years ago. It is now pieced together and quilted, just need to do some finishing embroidery and put some buttons on it. Then I'll bind it and it will also be the first step in my overall big project of the year - decorating the house. This is going in our guest room - it matches a picture that I have from IKEA with vases of the same colors, so they will be the inspiration for the rest of the room.


The next project: baby girl quilt. This one is so cute, I'm going to have trouble giving it away. But it will go in the pile of quilts on hand, because that is what I made it for. I saved a square to be added to later...I love baby animals. Again - Thanks to Carol Ann for the great fabric. It is basted, just waiting to get quilted.

Finally, I got fabric for the back of my "Madras" quilt. That's the crazy one made from Christmas fat quarters. I'm feeling really good about my progress on these three projects and I even started fabric organization with closet shelving.

So this weekend was a great one - hope yours was good as well.
