October Quilts

I have finished binding my Bird quilt. This is a kit I found at the Stitching Post while at the Sisters Quilt Show last summer. I fell in love with it. I finally finished binding it last night!

I got the Big Twister pieced. I was thinking about some borders but can't make up my mind so I will let it sit for a few days! 

Big Twister

Since making 2 Little Twisters, I decided I could enlarge the tool and try a Big Twister. I used a Little Apples layer cake and 1 yard of border fabric.

Here it is all cut out. Tonight I will piece it together!

Sorry for the picture quality. I used the camera on my phone. 

Little Twister

My friend Robin and I met to quilt yesterday. She had bought this Lil' Twister tool and pattern that make a little quilt with a charm pack and 1/3 yard of fabric. We tried it yesterday. Here is mine! I used an old charm pack called Civil War Front by Barbara Brackman. It was so fun, I whipped out another one, but have to sew it together today.

Now all I need to do is quilt it!

All Women's Race on Saturday

My friend Yvonne asked me to join her and another friend for the All Women's race in Missoula. For this race participants dress up as the race is held on Diva Day sponsored by Community medical Center.
Our team was dubbed The Princesses. Here we are! We had a great time and Yvonne finished her first 5K. Yeah!

Weekend Finishes

I needed to feel the accomplishment of finishing a project, so yesterday I dug around in my quilt room. I found a Pumpkins Gone Wild charm pack and a bit of matching yardage. I started and finished this table topper in one day!

I had 8 charms leftover so I got out the Halloween fabric bin and did this little table topper for my Mother-in-law!

Now that it is fall, I decided I could stand to be under a big quilt for a while and started this binding project.

I also finished 10 more ring sections for my double wedding ring quilt. 60 left to finish.

I enjoyed the feeling of finishing something!
