My Lincoln quilt for the July
Another Year of Schnibbles project almost became a UFO. Despite my best intentions of having the quilt done a couple weeks ago, I am coming in just under the wire.

I had Lincoln loaded on the frame last week, but no time to work on quilting. I have to say this was a really fun quilt to piece. It would be perfect for a beginner--no matching seams (except for the blocks) and the floating stars can't lose their points! |

I just finished the binding today. I was inspired to do an outdoor photo because of the beautiful shots Joanne at The Patriotic Quilter has been doing with her quilts. This is a fence near our parking area next to our driveway. Up North you need extra parking areas for visitors, boats and such. Nothing special, but the light was pretty good. |

I used a pantograph called Flirt. |

A "designer" back. I got to use up a lot of stash on that! I will be putting the label on tonight and call it done--yay!

Be sure to visit
Sherry and
Sinta at the end of the month to see the Schnibble parade!
Wow! How pretty is this quilt! I love it. I'm glad to have inspired you, as well. The outdoor photo is lovely. I can hardly wait for the parade tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteHi Karen--Just love "Lincoln"; it is beautiful. I especially love the floating stars--sounds great for a "point cutter-offer" like me! Hah--Hugs, Julierose
