Yesterday I finished up this beautiful quilt that my SIL, Kellie made. I love this quilt! :)
I forgot the exact measurements but it is a queen size. It is just lovely! Completely hand pieced using the English Paper Piecing (EPP) technique.
I quilted it with the "Mint Julep" design. I love this design.
A close up of the quilting and the minke back. The back is a dark brown minke and oh so soft. I love quilting with minke.
I tried to get her to just let me keep it for myself but she will not agree! LOL!
I trimmed it up and will be doing the binding over the next few days.
I am loading another one on the longarm so hope to have it done today.
We had a great weekend celebrating Hunter's 16th birthday! He actually turned 16 last weekend but Richard had to work so we had a cookout/party this past Saturday. He really enjoyed it! I enjoyed it as well but was very tired.
Yesterday I worked on quilting things and it will be the same thing today.
Oh, Oh, Oh....before I forget!!!! My MIL is having to move to a smaller place and when she came over Saturday for Hunter's party, she asked me if I would like to have Richard's grandmother's sewing machine!!!! Ummmmm...YES!!! LOL! I loved his grandmother dearly and so did he. It's not "old-old" but I am so excited to have it. I remember it in her house. It's in a cabinet so I'll have to find a place for it. I'm not sure yet but I may go pick it up later this week or next.

What a beautiful quilt your SIL made. Looks like a lovely quilting design you added!
What a treasure to get Richard's grandmother's machine! I'm sure you will be able to squeeze it in somewhere! :)
