Top Borders, Beatrix Potter Quilt

Top borders are done, and I've rolled the quilt forward. 😃

More Paper-Piecing, Safari Animals Quilt

 Cutting the fabric and then adding that one large triangle to the 180 three-piece units for the Safari Animals quilt took several hours.  Next, the tan and light brown triangles.  (Yes, I stacked those units back up neatly after I took the picture.  😉 )  Paper-piecing slows things down, but it's accurate. I sure couldn't have rotary cut these sizes!

180 Units for Safari Animals

 180 units for the Safari Animals quilt are done.  Now to cut 180 larger cream-colored triangles!

Units for Safari Animals

 72 of the inner three-piece units for this block for grandson Jeffrey's Safari Animals quilt are together; there are 106 to go. Then I'll add the next three pieces to those same units, after which four units will be combined to make one block. There are 45 blocks. Then the sashing and cornerstones... borders around the animal prints... It'll be a while. This block is called 'Cock's Comb'. Good thing I switched to red, ay?

Anne of Green Gables Quilt Done

The Anne of Green Gables quilt that my friend put together for one of her granddaughters is all done.  It measures 67" x 71".  The central section, including the stars and smaller pictures, is a printed panel.  The batting is Hobbs Heirloom 80/20.  I used a variety of threads on top -- Gutermann, Omni, Bottom Line -- just because I had the correct colors (lilac, cream, moss green) in those threads.  The bobbin thread is 60-wt. gray Bottom Line.

Central Panel Done, Anne of Green Gables Quilt

 I've completed the central panel and am working on the bottom borders. I won't have time to finish it today, though.

Past Halfway, Anne of Green Gables Quilt

 I'm well past the halfway point, quilting the quilt my friend pieced for one of her granddaughters. (Ignore the seam ripper in the 5th picture. Surely you know that I never, never, never have to use one of them thar thangs. It just likes to photobomb my pictures.)
