Lake Michigan was affected by Hurricane Sandy, the "frankenstorm" that socked the east coast this week. I took this photo just before 6 p.m. It looks like the ocean, not like the lake!
Here's another finish to add to the list -- #38! I made Nine Patch Strippy in 2010 using blocks left over from a quilt about five years before that. I quilted loopy flowers in the nine-patches, meandering in the zig zags, and more "almost feathers" in the border. I was apprehensive about using light blue thread on the dark blue but I didn't do too badly.
This is 56 x 64 and used 2-3/4 yards to back and bind.
very nice quilt, nann, as always..love the colors! and the batik one too..gorgeous! and thanks for your kind comments on MY blog too....
ReplyDeleteI love that quilt, and the feathers look great. The quilt looks antique from farther way, but I see all the more modern fabrics up close.
ReplyDeleteGood job!
These colors are terrific - glad I popped in to see your blog.
