I got a few things finished at my second retreat.
 |
| After I put together Step One of Temecula's Secret Santa (sorry, no photo), I started on Twilight. I managed to get all the stars done on the first day, and finished the whole quilt on the second day of camp. |
 |
| This little quilt is so cute--it measures approximately 25" x 33" and the pattern is from Buttermilk Basin. |
 |
| My 4" x 5" Anthology Quilt so far. Maybe I should have made this my first project to work on at camp, but I was too excited about digging into my new Twilight quilt. I got some of the Anthology rows sewn at the earlier retreat and now all of the vertical rows are done. The rows have all been numbered, so it's just a matter of sewing them all together to complete the top. First though, the plan is to cut out the Secret Santa Step Two 9 patches to use as leader/enders while I sew the rest of this quilt. |

| This is going to be the extent of my Sanjou from the Humble Quilts SAL. I wanted to make mine a bit bigger and intended to do the final border with square in a square blocks to look similar to Lori's inspiration quilt. Last night I came to my senses and just added a plain border. It now measures 28"square. Next decision: Red binding or scrappy? Or maybe scrappy red? Linking with Humble Quilts HERE |
Oooo, Twilight is so pretty. Second post in a row that I have seen with a little quilt in that color scheme. Just love it!
ReplyDeleteGreat progress on your anthology quilt.
Your Sanjou looks very nice. I think a read binding will be a good finish.
Oh, those stars! All so lovely!
ReplyDeleteOne can never go wrong with a RWB quilt and yours is exceptionally nice!
ReplyDeleteBlessings and hugs!
Boy you got a whole lot done--pedal to the metal for sure...nice work--I love how Twilight came out...hugs, Julierose
ReplyDeleteI adore your use of blue in your quilts Karen. Anthology is stunning and what perfect precision on twilight. Inspiring!
ReplyDeleteYou got quite a bit accomplished. I especially like your Twilight quilt - nice colors and the piecing is wonderful. Is the design from a pattern or a book?
ReplyDeleteLove your Sajou version with the added blue border.
ReplyDeleteLove the cheddar in Twilight. You got a lot done at your retreat. I haven't been to one in years. I always felt like I got more done at home in my own sewing room but then you miss all the fun of being with other quilters.
ReplyDeleteAll of these are beautiful. I can't believe how many quilts you create!
ReplyDeleteI would have started on Twilight as well. Super cute. Always love that combo. Might have to check that out. Sweet version of Sajou. It was a fun one to work on. I'm ready to work on the Temecula's Secret Santa quilt this week.
ReplyDeleteThat was a productive retreat! Twilight is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAnd I vote for a scrappy red binding for Sajou - which is also gorgeous!
Great progress on all projects. It is such a shame there are not more sewing hours in a day!
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing creative work. I appreciated your crafting ideas for DIY. I really love your blog. You always come up with new ideas.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!

Your quilt with the stars.... I was imagining it as a bed-size quilt. What a surprise to learn that it is so small. It is stunning!
