Whoo Hoo - Anything Other Than Square Finished!

Well, this is the picture without the binding on it. I finished this up for my grandmother. She's now almost 89, and she used to LOVE golf. Now she can't walk all that well, so I'm trying to keep her up on the golf stuff.

She will be getting this as a Christmas gift. It's a table topper.

Here's the top of it - I bound it in a dark green, but I forgot to take a picture of the finished project.


And here's the back of it.

Week 42: 16-22 October

Ten more weeks to go!! How's everyone doing with their weekly quilt challenge?? I'm catching up on the few weeks that I missed, or didn't finish up, but I do have a lot of miniature tops! This winter I plan on quilting everything and binding them all. :) I'm so excited for it.

Miniature quilts are a ton of fun, and they're quick (relatively speaking!) I do think that I've spent a ton of time working on them, and overall, I'm happy with how they've been coming out. It's a lot harder than I thought it would be - sometimes trying to find three or four hours a week to sew is really tough - especially with all the other "mandatory" wedding sewing or fun sewing that I just want to do. Even out of this challenge, as fun as it is for me sometimes I just want to sew and make things for me. Weird I know. :)

Anyway - lets get a move on with this weeks theme. Lets think outside of the box this week. How's about we do any shape other than square or rectangle. :) Lets have FUN!!.

Theme: ANYTHING OTHER THAN SQUARE. Circular, oval, house, car shape - just go with it!
