Mystery Quilt

This year they did a Mystery quilt at the Chelmsford Quilters Guild. I was pleased with the outcome, but if I'd known what it was going to be I think I would have used the colors differently. I may do it again.

Couch Potato Quilt

This is an interesting way to use up scraps. I'm trying to do a lot of that these days! I machine quilted bears and deer in the center squares. It's a Couch Potato Quilt.

Helping Hands

Flat Milly could use a hand holding the quilts up, I wonder what Mr FM is up to... "Mr Flat Milly?"

"WHAT!?"


*hehe*

Around the World in Purple

This was made using the technique in Blanche Young's book, "Bloomin' Nine Patch". I've made four of these and every one is fun. You pick out all the fabric but the ending is always a pleasant surprise! Size 50” x 55”

Echoes in Green

I fell in love with needle turn applique and this is my first quilt. I had to hand quilt it but enjoyed it. One of my favorites. Size 45" X 56"

Zinnias

Dianne Hire was a guest speaker at our quilting guild one month and gave us her book "Games Quilters Play". I saw this idea in it and Zinnias came to mind so I plunged ahead. My sewing room floor was piled high with scraps while I worked on it and I never could find the right yellow to live with the reds so I had to leave it out. This was me climbing "outside the box". Size 42" X 54"

Flat Milly Goes To The Quilt Show

The Chelmsford Quilters Guild had a show last weekend, and I've uploaded oodles of my photos from the show here.

This was a great get together where quilters got to share and see each others work, and I hope you enjoy my photos from the event.

"Work" In Progress

The project these days is to use up some of my stash in scrap quilts. The first picture is the "Sister's Choice" pattern. This is the second one done this year.

The next picture is the beginning of another scrap quilt on the design board. It is going along very nicely.
