Friday Finishes

      The holidays are over and my week was back to normal. I spent 2 mornings doing yard work and several afternoons quilting. I finished my second “Red Bird wall-hanging”.  


     Next I quilted my “Floral 4 Patch Swirl” with meandering loops. The 4 Patch Swirl pattern uses the stack and whack technique; however, I was using a limited amount of the floral fabric and some scraps that I just loved and wanted to use it. I made whatever size swirls I could, added coordinating fabrics and pieced units just to make the blocks the finished size I wanted. Here are a couple: large and small. 

 
The quilt still needs a binding but I'm counting this as a finish today.

Stash Report for 2025

Have a great week and enjoy sewing, quilting and creating.
