This is a blog for my traditional quilts. I have way too much stash and want to bust some this year.

UFO Hand applique

I dug out another UFO, must have taken me  two years to do all the hand applique.  This is my first attemp at hand applique. It is a BOM pattern offered to The Quilt Show by Susan Garman.
What a surprise when I got it up on the design wall. I've started to put the sashing and cornerstone blocks around the main blocks.  Will continue to work on it and will show a pic when it is finished.

This is my new blog and will contain my traditional quilts. I have a lot of stash and this is the year that I need to bust it!

I just finished this quilt for my brother in law, who is very ill right now. Delivered it and he was thrilled.
It is a disappearing nine patch, I used two shades of gold and two shades of green.
