Homespun Houses…Works in Progress and a Finish!!

Here’s this month’s Works in Progress~

Yup…I’m still plugging away on my Homespun Quilt…

Here’s she is resting on the RV’s floor (dang that sunlight!!;)…the borders are on and I have the vine appliqued down…slow progress for sure…and it’s no wonder!  I’ve been so busy gallivanting around the countryside… but I do have the stars and leaves all cut out and ironed onto freezer paper!  My GOAL…to be totally finished by next month at this time!  My fingers are crossed…which is going to make it difficult for stitching!

Here’s another work in progress…

Claire’s Hood is really taking shape and looking fabulous! Remember Claire started a lot later than the rest of us!  She has only three and a half houses to finish before her sashing and borders go on!  Go, Claire, GO!

And we also have a Finished Hood!!  Yup…here is Seattle Judy’s FINISHED HOOD!!  Spectacular isn’t it! 

Judy used homespuns from her stash…and each house is totally different!!  Love it!

Judy’s friend, Cathy, quilted it over the Christmas holidays and she did an amazing job!  I have provided you with tons of close-up pics so that you can see how Cathy quilted this incredible quilt!

Cathy did an awesome job by quilting little details onto each house…I sure hope you can see them! (Click on each picture to enlarge it!)

Oh, man I LOVE the binding fabric…a black stripe cut on the bias!!  It’s like icing on the cake!

 

I love the stippling around the houses and the meandering in the border!  Everything about this quilt is gorgeous!

And look at the detail on the leaves!!  It’s so nice when the quilt top and the quilting compliment each other!! This is truly team work at it’s best!

And just LOOK at the back..it’s like a whole cloth quilt!!  Beautiful!

Thanks Judy and Cathy for the incentive to get  ‘er done! 

Now hustle your bustle over to Forewoman Anne’s (Cotton ‘N Wool) to see what her crew has been building!  The hoods should be taking shape…

Have a terrific Tuesday and Happy Quilting!~P
