It's a..., it's a...

finished quilt top! I like the author's color choices far better-this is from the Start Quilting with Alex Anderson book. But, for my very first-I'm satisfied. Next time, I won't rush through the meager choices at Wal-Mart because I'm impatient to get started. ;~)

I saved some fabric last year from C's window topper to incorporate into a quilt for her. Probably, SQwAA's next project, the 9 patch variation. If I make two of the projects, and add borders, I should be in good shape. This wall hanging was started on Monday-granted it's far from completed-but I don't think that a twin size bed quilt is too big of a stretch for the next challenge.

I plan to use cotton flannel in place of true batting for this one, since it's just a wall hanging. Maybe I can get it finished next week. I have gobs of sewing to do yet-my rayon top did not get much attention this week-OK, OK, one measly seam is all I did! So, I need to finish that, and then I have 3 pairs of pants waiting. Reading this makes me laugh at myself just a little! What kind of time do I think I have anyway?!?

I have done some knitting on the Log Cabin afghan, maybe I'll post a pic of that next time. The colors are shockingly loud-so brace yourself.

I'll leave you with a pic of my japanese iris-aren't they lovely?
