Then this morning I was thinking...... I am going to finish that Kona Bay quilt. A friend and I were looking at my quilts and I was kinda embarrassed that all that was needed to finish this quilt was 3 sides to the border. That was it....So I asked myself...."What is the stinking hold up?"
I can do this.....so I got my quilt out....turned the TV on for distraction to keep my mind on track and just started finishing it up.
Here it is finished.!!!! More knuckle claps are in order......I am soooooooooo happy to have this done.
Next on the menu is an Orange Slice quilt...I am sure it just needs the borders quilted and a binding.So....I am telling myself....I can do that too....I CAN!!
Looks great, Barb!
ReplyDeleteThat binding looks great. And woo hoo for finishing your Kona quilt!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts! I really like the Kona Bay quilt. Looks like you had a great sewing day.
ReplyDeleteHooray!!! Congrats on the nice finishes! That always feels so good. Looking forward to seeing more soon :*)
ReplyDeleteYES you can! Love your finish!
ReplyDeleteHip Hip Hooray ! and a great big pat on the back. You go girl! I am just putting the binding on a top I made in the spring of 2011-yep, feels good to have another finish.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you quilt a large quilt on a table sewing machine. You must really have some great skills. I just tried doing my bedrunner on it and made a real mess of things. Spent the entire evening unstitching. Love your quilt. Great job!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't a finish feel fantastic? I can't wait to see the Orange Slice too. I need to get that one done as I loved the pattern.
ReplyDeleteHey Barb! I'm finally back from my blog land exile! LOL! I think the binding on that first quilt looks wonderful...that is such a happy little quilt. And yee-haw for finishing up your Kona Bay quilt...it's awesome! I'm sure it feels really great to have that done.
ReplyDeleteI just finished up that Salt Air quilt I was making for a wedding gift...the wedding was in March! Yikes, I'm a bit behind, don't ya think? But I'm taking photos tomorrow and then putting it in the mail and on it's way. That feels good, too!
XOXO,
Cyndi
Gosh you can go when you put your mind to it... they are both wonderful.

Oh Barb, both quilts are lovely but that second one is so colorful and fun to look at! I'd be really happy to have that one finished for enjoyment too!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on some great finishes.
ReplyDeleteyou are on a roll. well done!
ReplyDeleteI think sometimes we get our head into new projects before we finish the old...love this one and I like a binding that says it all too! This one does.
