Quilty Weekend!

I had a lot of fun this weekend! I got 3 quilts done on the longarm...one for a gift from my son and I to his orthopedic surgeon, and 2 for a friend! It felt good to be "buzzing" along! LOL I have to make a postcard cataloging the KU quilt yet. Maybe tomorrow...
These are the pics of the KU Quilt for Dr. Snyder!

The next set of pics are a friend of mine's who made this large quilt for her brother/dsil and the smaller one is for donation. I used a very pale yellow thread and did the baptist fan from Circle Lord on the large one...I just have a close up of my all over patterned meandering for the small one. My friend had enough blocks left over from the large quilt to make the small one! WOOHOO!!
blogger was a stinker...tried to upload 5 at a time last night and this morning and it would NOT take...had to do them one at a time! *SIGH*

I busted 11 yards for the KU quilt...YTD fabric busted: 47 yards
Fabric purchased YTD: 75.75 yds
Net purchased YTD: 28.75 yds

Guilty Quilter at work

The GUILT got to me after buying so much fabric (click on previous phrase to see post) while in California!!! So today I decided to make something so that I can BUST some stash! LOL...

I made the top (borders to be added tomorrow) today using KU fabric. This quilt will be for my son's orthopedic surgeon who repaired his ACL. Dr. Snyder was AWESOME and he's a grad of KU and a HUGE sports fan! What better than a quilt to thank him! I had to throw the soccer balls in there since that's DS's sport of choice and the reason for the injury and repair!


I hope Dr. Snyder likes it when it's done. The pattern is "Just Can't Cut It" by All Washed Up Quilts. This is the 4th time I have made this pattern. It's great for large patterns or if you want a cool quilt and need it quickly!!

Here's a closup of the fabricsI'll have a stash busting report either later tonight or tomorrow! I hope you are having a great Sunday and are getting some quilting done!


I don't know why the pictures won't enlarge when you click on them...darn
