Finally, a QUILT to SHOW!

I've been collecting black and white blocks from friends and exchanges, and was spurred on by my Wild Thread quilt group to get rid of UFO's hanging around my sewing room. I picked this great puce booger green fabric to sash it with, made zig-zag borders, and just have to get this quilted up.


Photo credit to patient Stewart. Tomorrow I will show you the family shot we got from this sitting--freezing cold on the front porch with our brown fuzzy blanket rigged up behind us.

YES, more couple pictures! This can be you and Bob's year of study. You could train Seb and Gabe as photographers!

I think this is one of my favorite photos of you two!

I love the quilt, especially the zigzag boarders. Hopefully I will get to see it in person one day.

Beautiful couple photos. And a fantastic quilt. UFOs are definitely worth pursuing.
