I can't believe that this one is DONE! I got it finished relatively fast in my world of UFOs! :o)) as I started it in 2014!!:o) Slow and steady...well maybe NOT that steady! I tend to stitch the wool blocks, let it sit, stitch the machine pieced blocks, let it mellow and sit, stitch them all together, let them stew and SIT...well you get the idea..there's always A LOT of sitting!
This is a Primitive Gatherings' pattern called 'Home For the Holidays'. I made the quilt entirely from my stash...and ordered the border fabric (online) as it is a Primitive Gathering fabric and has the little reindeer on it... just like the wool reindeer in the bottom left row...just too cute not to!
I didn't want to mess up the quilt so I kept the quilting simple...a meander around the wool motifs. Not the greatest but she is done!
I caught up with hubby out in the backyard...he was painting the deck bench so I roped him into holding the quilt for pictures! Sure hope his hands were clean!! Oh well, paint or no paint, she is done! Start up that band, grab the person in front...and kick those feet nice and high!
U-F-O kick! U-F-O KICK! U-F-O KICK! Yup, getting a UFO done is always reason to celebrate!!
Have a terrific Tuesday and happy stitching!~P
Congrats on your finish, such a sweet quilt.
ReplyDeleteAfter meeting up with Anna last week I dug out an older UFO and hope to work on it also!
Yea! Congrats on a fabulous finish! I just love it!
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely a winner--and it is finished!! I'd kick, but I don't have time for more physical therapy right now, and I hate to think what a kick would do to my body!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Paulette! You are on a roll now!
ReplyDeleteWow! You are on a major roll. I hope you can send a little of that momentum to the rest of us!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great finish, and you're now waaay ahead on the Christmas sewing :)
ReplyDeleteFabulous. You've been on a roll lately. Maybe I could bring some of my UFOs over to your house and 'get em done.' haha
ReplyDeleteGirl! By the time we get to "Finish It February" you're going to be All Finished!
ReplyDeleteLove finishing UFO's and love finishing Christmas projects early, well done!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Paulette. This one is a beauty!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a beautiful quilt and so much piecing, but the mix of stitching and piecing really makes the quilt, love it.

Such a gorgeous quilt! You did a superb job!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a sweet one Paulette, one of my favorites.
ReplyDeleteI remember when you were working on this quilt. A good finish. You are on a roll!
ReplyDeleteWow, that is just great. The setting blocks are just the right thing for the wool appliqué blocks. Surely Christmas can't be too far off
ReplyDeleteNever good to act too quickly. :-)
ReplyDeleteCute holiday quilt.
I've been dancing like a Rockette since I read about your finish. It's super cute and DONE!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I have the pattern somewhere? Only 2014, that's really good!
ReplyDeleteVery adorable! Love it :o)
ReplyDeleteIt is wonderful and I love your UFO K-I-c-k. This quilt would go great with my UFO that got finished this summer.
