All Creatures Great & Small

 I've begun working on grandson Nathanael's quilt, which I think I will call 'All Creatures Great and Small'.  This is the central section.  It's still in three parts; I need to sew it together, add a couple of borders to frame it, and then design some fancy borders.

Done Quilting the Dick, Jane, & Sally Quilt

 This evening I finished quilting my friend's Dick, Jane, & Sally quilt.  The backing is flannel.  She made it for her newest grandbaby, who will be arriving any day now.




















Starry Night Wolves Quilt Done

The Starry Night Wolves quilt for grandson Lyle is done.  It measures 94" x 107".  I used Quilters' Dream wool batting.  There are numerous colors of thread in the top, mostly 40-wt., but a few 50-wt. in the central wolves panel.  The brands are Omni, Signature, Masterpiece, and Gutermann.

The panel is called 'Wolves Dream Catcher' and is by Riley Blake Designs.  I designed the borders in EQ8, using blocks called 'Delectable Mountains' and 'LeMoyne Single Irish Chain', and 'Striped Grooves' outer border.

Here's a breakdown of the hours spent on this quilt:




























Binding -- sewn to the back, wrapped around to the front, and finished with a narrow blanket stitch.
