I finally finished putting together my Garden Party quilt top. I am going to sew a 2.5" constant red strip around the end to make the longarmer (me) happy. Then that strip will be trimmed so that it doesn't take over the quilt. Garden Party is a Bonnie Hunter design.
I also moved my Go 4 It quilt along. It is my new leader/ender project now that Garden Party is complete. I love it that other blogging friends are also doing the same design. It's a fun scrap project. I'm using 1.5" squares (2.5" 4-patches) that I put together in previous RSC months like crazy.
The pattern for Go 4 It can be found in the magazine, American Patchwork & Quilting, April 2015.
I'm linking up with Angela's blog, SoScrappy for the RSC20.
Both quilts involve so much work and pieces, but they are truly beautiful and I love all the different fabrics put together.
ReplyDeletegolly what a lot of time and work have gone into those quilts. Great use of scraps and they are both beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGo 4 It has long been a favorite of mine, Kathy. SEW glad to see you are making progress on it, again!
ReplyDeleteThose are both so pretty, Kathy! I'm glad you pulled Go 4 It back out - I love all those scrappy bits!
ReplyDeleteGo 4 It is looking great. Love how Garden Party turned out. What a great quilt.
ReplyDeleteWonderful quilts, Kathy. Garden Party is on my to-do list and one day, I will get to it, lol. Love yours. ;^)
ReplyDeleteLove your Garden Party! Wasn't it fun to piece? (Looking at yours makes me want to make another one!)
ReplyDeleteThough I might be able to sidetrack myself with Go 4 It... That one looks like fun, too.
Wow! Go 4 It is amazing. I have one 1/2 done set on the diagonal like that. It’s difficult for me for some reason. I guess, now that we have no pets and all the littles have moved away...I could lay it on the family room floor and just leave it there til it’s done! 😀
ReplyDeleteGarden Party may be my favorite Quiltville quilt ever..it is hard to choose but I made one and a tablerunner and am itching to make another! LOVE it in red!
ReplyDeleteIt is always good to make progress on those long term projects. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteGreat finish on Garden Party. Turned out so pretty ... love the red outside edge. Go 4 It will be another fabulous quilt and I like that it's your new L&E project. I always try to have a L&E going too.
