Autumn Celebration fresh off the long arm! Ready to bind (maybe Saturday or Sunday) and display. Pieced and quilted by me, 60x60.

I had to get this lovely Autumn wall hanging (60x60) finished before wThanksgiving. The coming week will be busy with long arm quilting and getting projects finished before the first of November. So excited to complete my long list and get everything out the door. Then I’ll start on my Christmas projects. ❤️

As I am knocking things off my to-do list before the holidays, I’m nearly ready to longarm!! This wall hanging is about the first half or so of the “Autumn Celebration Wreath” kit I purchased from Jordan Fabrics. Then I have 4 quilts to longarm- planning to finish all of those by the end of next week, then two Christmas quilts to make and quilt, and if I can “eek” out enough time, I may just make myself a Christmas quilt.

September Block of the Month from “A Quilting Life” with Sherri and Chelsi. Is it perfect? Nope. Considering that the October block was released today, I’m going with “done is good enough for me.” I love the colors, and my first time making a basket like this. Tilda “Sanctuary” collection.

These pictures were in my memories today, so I thought I’d share them here. This quilt was made as part of a quilt along fundraiser for the Virginia Quilt Museum in 2023. Little did I know that my quilt would be among those chosen to be on display from 9/25-12/25. “Show Your Colors” is a tribute to my Alma Mater- James Madison University, and is made in the school colors of Purple and Gold. Thanks to Wendy Sheppard and Pat Sloan for their work in creating the Harrisonburg pattern and coordinating the sew along. At the time, it was the biggest quilt I had ever made.
