Third one done! :)

Last night I finished sewing the label onto the third and last of my Jennie Rayment quilts from camp. :) I still think that Tucked-Up Circles is my favorite of the three, but this one was fun to do, too. It's called Eight Petals and a Pot (for obvious reasons ), and the pot and the petals are all "twiddled and fiddled" a bit. The leaves are dimensional, made of two layers of fabric with batting between and then satin stitched together before being satin stitched onto the quilt by means of the "veins". The machine quilting is mostly flowers and leaves. I've posted pics at .My quilting frenzy is now at a temporary end, since DH is on the way home right now with MIL in tow. They should arrive in a few hours, giving me just enough time to make dinner and have it cooling (tomato pie is much better when it's not piping hot ) after I dress for the day. It's amazing how much I can get done when I have these little respites from "normal" life. ;)

No wonder you encouraged me to stick with it if I'm on a roll! You know first-hand about these things. Nice job!

Thanks, Terri! :)

LOL! Not quite. ;) I'd finished the quilt the previous night, and I didn't make the tomato pie until after I'd dressed. Company didn't arrive until I was in the middle of slicing/seeding tomatoes. ;)
