And for my own pleasure I added borders on the center top my friends made me while they were at the Spring Dear Jane retreat! It still needs to be quilted, it will have its turn after I am done with my friends tops... I love it! The border is also a fabric from Brenda Papadakis, it was perfect for it!
I am going back to quilting, one more to go before Friday! And this one is a big one!
Have a great day!

Still quilting here, I love it! It is very interesting when people give you tops really different from what you usually do! I love the challenge! I did circles on the strippy one, different sizes, concentric ones... I played around! And on the diamond one I did leaves...

Today I have been busy quilting this one: the picture does not do it justice, it is going to be a very nice birthday present!
Today has been hot here in Paris and we had rain tonight but not much, not enough for the lawn to turn back green instead of yellow...

Hi, here are some different basket blocks I have been making:
This week, I had the visit of friends from Brussels and one of them had 2 baby quilts for me to quilt, they are done:

I also have been busy making some of these so cute ones!
The other day, I had a housewarming party here and received some very nice flowers! I am glad took a picture as now they are gone...

Off to bake some cookies, with kids at home they don't last long...

I am so happy! I just finished quilting that one and I love it! Just need to be bound... Here are 2 pictures, front and back. I never thought it would take me so long but it is now done and had been a great practice onto following designed quilting lines!

Today has been a hot day here in Paris! But with a nice breeze. So I took a hand sewing project and spent the afternoon outside in the shadow of a nice weeping willow. Here is the result: I put it in the frame it will go to see how it will look like, but I have to hand quilt it first... I just love it! I bought 2 frames like that, they are made with old barn wood, just wonderful!
I hope you all had a great day, later, Val
