Hehehe…
Yes, I do dabble in quilting. I haven’t truly sewn a quilt top in over 6 years but I thought it was time. I have been gathering books, patterns, fabrics for the last 6 months or so and it was time to sew something.
Last week I found a day to focus completely on getting a quilt top cut, pieced and sewn together.
Here it is!
(It is squared, I promise. The wind was just blowing the right side over ;o))
I used a Sweet Treat and their Walkin’ the Line pattern.
I am very, very pleased with how it turned out! Such a great, fun, easy, fast, beautiful quilt top!
The fabrics make me so happy!
I just have to put the 2 borders on, buy the backing & batting, quilt them together and do the binding. No prob, right? We’ll see just how long the rest takes me.
Here are the border fabrics.
THey are a little washed out in the photo, just believe me when I say that they match perfectly!!

I freakin’ LOVE this quilt top. I am jealous! :)) I love the fabrics they put together and you did a great job on not getting a parallelogram. I can’t wait to see this one finished. I mean, I would finish it for you, that’s how excited I am for it. Seriously.

It’s GORGEOUS! The colors suit you so well and it will be so beautiful when it’s finished. And I am turning green with envy again. I have got to get mom to make me a quilt.
