The Finish it Up weekend was a blast! Huge thanks and kudos to
Krista / Poppyprint for a fabulous weekend - the location at Loon Lake is unbelievable - the setting, the food, the people! Could not have been better! To get a
real good laugh and see some
pictures of some of the antics that some got up to, you should check out
Kristie's blog -
OCD. Kristie arrived all the way from Winnipeg and was such a hoot to share a table with! Her humor is well balanced with her amazing time management skills and her fabulous quilting - boy did she get a lot done!
Speaking of getting things done, I did manage to finish off a few projects before starting down the route of making something new.
First up was finishing off this baby quilt
Then I pulled out this one and finished off the quilting on it. It feels good to have it done - now I just need to bind it and decide what I'm going to do with it!
Then it was time to break out and do something new - life has been pretty rough at work the last little while - we've just changed computer systems, and for some of us, there have a number of frustrations. I figured we needed a way to relieve some of that frustration!
This one was made for a colleague:
and then this one was for my office wall
Next up was finishing the binding on my
Kona Modern Quilts challenge - got that one done too, but I'm not happy with the picture, so you'll have to wait for the full reveal on that! Also no picture, but I did start a new project - but I'll save that one until I'm a little further along with it.
Hope you had a great weekend and got lots done, too!
Linking up to
The Needle and Thread Network this week.
Happy quilting!

Your quilting is as inspiring as ever. Nice to have something soft when you hit your head! lol
Your quilting is amazing! WOW. Love the hit head here too, I might have to make one of those for my office! Ha!
Haha!! Love the "Hit Head Here" pieces. :D Such lovely quilting on the table runner, and I love the candy ribboning on the zigzag quilt. I may have to try that - might be able to actually handle that, where feathering is still way beyond me. :D
Your quilting always makes me drool!
Your quilting is marvelous! and you may have "hit" on one of those great "quips" with the hit your head here... could be the next big thing!
Your quilting blows my mind. Love it all.
Beautiful, beautiful work! Your quilting is inspiring!
Lovely projects, I especially like the quilting in the rail-fence quilt.
Janet, gorgeous quilting, as always! I love your office quilts.
Hey I could use one of those Hit your Head pieces! Once again your quilting is "the Cat's Meow"!!!
I love the pattern of the quilting on the baby quilt! As always, your quilting is outstanding, Janet! I hope those "Hit Head Here" quilts come in handy at work!
Amazing quilting on your projects!
Love the Hit your Head here pieces. I think everyone needs one of those at least once in a while.
