I went to Connie's hook-in last Saturday, then to Hook &Thread on Sunday. I forgot to take pictures either day. Shucks!
I'm slowly working on my version of an antique reproduction that is known as Kinderhook. I've reworked some areas a couple of times. It's more difficult to get it done when I don't have a definite color plan.
At the hook-in I got the two doodads at the bottom hooked. At H&T I was busy sewing binding on a quilt. I had two quilts that were completely finished and ready to donate and three more that needed the binding put on.
This was a three yard challenge quilt sponsored by the Black Fork Quilting Group. This is a fun group of ladies. We get together once a month. Isn't the backing fun. I mostly use cotton sheets for the back. And I thought this one was adorable.
A simple way to use up some scraps. This pattern is called "June". I've used this pattern several times. The quilt always turns out great. Again the backing was a flowered sheet
This is a Bonnie Hunter quilt pattern called Scrappy Trip Around the World. It uses scraps that are 2 1/2" wide. And again the backing is a sheet, a lovely blue floral. Some of the pictures are sun dappled. Yes, the sun.
I have no idea the name of this pattern. I do know that I don't like it. I love the gray print paisley. And I got my colors from that print. But it's too chaotic looking for my likes. I hope someone likes it. All of these quilts will be donated to Snuggled in Hope.
That's it for my crafting. I had an MRI of my back this week, now I'm waiting to hear what the DR says.

Wow!!! You gave kept yourself very busy. All beautiful.
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your back. My husband just went through surgery in October.

Wonderful quilts and of course I so love your hooked piece thus far. I am struggling with my own that I am hooking because I had no plan as well. Hope all went well with the MRI. Janice
ReplyDeleteDo you think machine quilting 5 quilts in a row has anything to do with your back problem? Just ask my mother!
ReplyDeleteI make the tops, them have a friend do the quilting, then I do the binding. But I don't think picking up and stacking wood helps either.
