All that is left is the final borders. Those should go on this week.
The last block needed for the purple and yellow quilt was finished yesterday. I was using Bonnie Hunter's leaders and enders approach to piecing these blocks. It's been slow, but it has made for steady progress on this UFO from 2006.
The first 5 rows are stowed away in the closet. Once Flurry comes off the big design wall, I'll lay this one out and play around with the layout. It might just get done before the end of the year.
For more design walls, check out Patchwork Times.
Two great quilts. I keep seeing Flurry and think what a great quilt top!
ReplyDeleteYou are so close to the end of both of these great quilts. Sending good vibes to have them complete by the end of the year.
ReplyDeleteLove both of them. I'm going to miss the purple and yellow one when you're done, for some reason that one really appeals to me. I'm going to have to look for purple and yellow scraps, think it needs to go on my list of quilts to make!
ReplyDeletegorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteOh.....that is the lotto block for one of my guild's for the Christmas block party. Love it!
ReplyDeleteglen: the purple and yellow squares are so intriguing, I am very into squares this year.
I really like what you are doing with the purple (my favorite quilting color) and yellow. I like the touches of orange. Great work on both of them!
ReplyDeleteGood work, Kate! I love your color choices.
ReplyDeleteYou got some sewing done this weekend - yea!
ReplyDeleteLove the purple and gold quilt and it will be interesting to see how you arrange all of the blocks.

I have that Flurry pattern to make one day. It is a happy quilt. Your purple and yellow project looks like the design Flush of Spring. I was commissioned to make a king size in tones of green and beige. It was a challenge blending each fabric together. You are getting close to completions :) Sandi
ReplyDeleteFlurry is just too fun! Good job. And why...haven't I ever thought of yellow and purple together? Your combination is wonderful! Toni
ReplyDeleteI really like both but Flurry just sings to me. I love it. I can't wait to see the final borders on it.
ReplyDeleteLove the purple and yellow! It is a great combination. Of course the Flurry quilt is also wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love them both, but am partial to the purple/yellow one! I have been wanting to make a scrappy quilt with those colors, but realized I have very little of either of those colors left in my stash right now!
ReplyDeleteFlurry looks fabulous! I really need to get a move on with mine...
ReplyDeleteYay! An end in sight for the purple and yellow quilt. I've always loved that quilt and cant wait to see what you do with it quilting wise...it's gorgeous!
Flurry is looking awesome, not much further to go now. I still need to make the backing. I'm trying to work out if I have enough scraps so that I can use them "nicely" in the back.
ReplyDeleteLove the purple and yellow quilt, it's going to look fabulous.
I love the Flurry quilt. I am starting mine next week - using Reindeer Games.
ReplyDeleteI saw some Christmas fabric in the store today that had gift boxes printed on it and I immediately thought of your quilt!
