Tuesday's monthly local guild meeting featured a reveal of the round robin six of us have been passing around since October. I didn't know all of the women involved, but everyone did a fabulous job. I now have two Christmas quilts to finish (for whom is the question!).
This started with the Dresden Plate in the center and was surrounded by borders. Quilters could add fabric if they wished, and, while I don't really care for brown or gold, they do work in this quilt. I really like the cathedral windows border.
Tammy, one of the other quilters, offered to long arm each person's quilt for free, but I think I'll quilt mine myself. Medallion quilts are fairly easy for me to quilt with my walking foot, and this isn't a gigantic quilt anyway. I don't think I'll add to it, except for the binding, of course. For now, it's waiting for me to create a back and think about how I'll quilt it.
Yesterday's project was to finish the hanging sleeve for Hankie Quilt #2 which is going to the Billings Farm and Museum, and today's is to finish a back for the other Christmas quilt, Ribbon Star. Luckily, it's not as hot/humid as it was earlier this week. My sewing room needs its air conditioning installed, but is fine today.

it is nice that you are satisfied with the end results I have heard of some over the years that really dislike it when it comes back to them
