Finish #17 - Peaches and Dream




Graduation Quilt for Maria - Almost Done! The new bobbin case for my Janome Machine came in right on time Thursday...such drama...I was starting to have withdrawals. A little quilting around the edges, hand work on the binding, the label, then delivery this weekend! (Sorry about the shoe, it was a little windy outside).


The Quilt is from a class taken with Judy Laquidara in March at the GSQA Seminar in Baton Rouge, LA. The pattern is from Judy's "Peaches and Dream".


For more projects, visit Amy Lou's "Sew and Tell". Amy's friends are keeping up her site, so I will be checking all week for a report on her new little project - a baby girl.

I love it! Those colors really pop. I didn't notice the shoe until I read that it was there. Hee! At least you could put your quilt on the grass. (Snow in Utah. The worst.)
