Only two more to go but those are both small. This one autumn one is queen size...felt like I wast stitching binding down forever! The quilt design is from Blackbird Designs (with a few adjustments) and I think it is called 1904.
Good thing my guild had a retreat this past weekend. It is easier to stitch down binding when there is a lot going on around you but no interruptions like making dinner or playing with the dog!
that is me in the far right, front row...
The retreat was great!
It was out at a church camp in South Carolina. Nothing fancy but it had lots of work-space, was incredibly clean, and they provided two meals a day - and the food was really good! (the tomato basil casserole was amazing!)
Getting together in groups like this can be a great kick in the pants to get things finished. Like this group of blocks my friend Linda had...
She put them up on the wall...one quilter recommended the orange-y yellow for the sashing...
then another brought over some black polka dot fabric for the cornerstones.
Project goes from UFO to a a flimsy in just a couple hours!

Congratulations on your Autumn quilt finish! The retreat sounds like it was wonderful and even included a fountain rainbow.
Congrats on another finish--looks very seasonal.
My goodness, that spread of food had my mouth watering.
The sashing and cornerstone fabrics were perfect to make Linda's blocks shine even more. They were very pretty to start with and now they sparkle!
