April 2014 A lovely year of finishes

I finished my April goal which is also my challenge quilt for our Quilt show this summer. This is the first time I used my special wedge ruler and the first time I attached a jeweled appliqué to something. I am happy with the results. I had to use colors starting with my initials CAM. So the colors are corn yellow, aqua and midnight blue.

April 2014 goal for A Lovely Year of Finishes

My goal is to complete this wall hanging for our  quilt show challenge this summer. The Challenge is to create something no bigger than 36 inches using our initials for color choices. My initials are CAM therefore I used Corn Yellow, Aqua and Midnight Blue. We can also choose to use one more color if desired but I don't think I need one.

March 2014 A Lovely Year of Finishes


My Goal for March was to quilt and bind this quilt. It is a reversible quilt because I had way to many tops finished and I wasn't getting them finished. A lovely year of finishes has helped me get caught up.

 This is the back of my February goal for 2014 A Lovely Year of Finishes. Benji of course had to sit on it and wouldn't move. It is a scrappy log cabin.

This is my goal for February A Lovely Year of Finishes 2014. It is reversible and consists of a bunch of UFO blocks I am trying to use up. I find it hard to throw anything away. My goal is to quilt and bind this.

January goal for A Lovely Year of Finishes 2014

Front of January goal
This is the back
My January goal for ALYOF 2014 was this quilt top and back . It needed to be quilted and bound. I had so many tops I decided to see if I could combine some of them into reversible quilts.  The from side is a combination of all my bow tie UFO blocks. Some of them were quite old.
