Slightly off kilter

This quilt has been in process for months, but now it's finally quilted

It just needs a binding

and then it can go to AAQI.
I'm naming it slightly off kilter, for the asymetrical look.

here's another quilt that's slightly off kilter.
I made it from a bunch of dark and light blocks, but it just isn't right.
So I'm re-jigging it by taking off the borders, and a bit more
for the baby quilt challenge my guild is having this year.
stay tuned on how it turns out.

Four finishes in a week!!!!


First up is a little scrap spiderweb, machine quilted in parallel lines:
Spiderweb mini, 16 by 16 inches, machine quilted.

Next is a table runner started in summer, made from grey scale blocks from a scrap bag of goodies, borders in solids and machine quilted with vines and geometric designs:
Table runner, 18 bv 45 inches, machine quilted.

And a baby quilt from pass-along Pixie Dust scraps, for the local hospital, machine quilted with faux feathers made with a parallel serpentine stitch. (I kow, I should have basted a bit better, but oh well.)
Pixie Dust, 36 inches square, machine quilted.

Here's a close-up of the centre:

These three quilts were made from scraps from V at Bumble Beans. Thanks for your generosity and it was fun to play with your fabrics.

And one more, that I posted earlier this week:

Hand-dyed nine-patch, 11 by 11 inches, handquilted.

It was a productive week, and I cleared away a lot of little UFOs. Now on to the big ones!

I can see clearly now

that the scraps are gone
I can see all obstacles in my way



Gone are the fabric piles that had me blind


It's gonna be a bright (bright), bright (bright)



quilt patchy day.
