This is my February quilt top ( not quilted yet) for my Debby Brown Quilts.com class - its the Color Block class....
just so you know... even though the calendar said March, if February had as many days and January - I would have had it finished... so I blame the calendar makers... yep - its all their fault I was a little behind.
I made a few more blocks than her original pattern called for and I added another border - It brought it up to 61 x 80 and will be a Perfect Quilts of Valor Size.... It just needs quilting....
I have been very lucky in the paying work side - so it may be a bit... but it is all GOOD!
I also had a Quilt of Valor presentation to a Marine up in the mountains... and you all KNOW I had to take advantage of our little trip!!
not bad views right? It was a beautiful day up there - a little sunny, a little windy, and great company!

To someone who has been stuck at home in lockdown for a year and no travel, those mountains seem like an impossible dream. So glad you were able to go and enjoy! I am sure the quilt recipient was overjoyed.
ReplyDeleteYour color blocks are so pretty and I love the border. What gorgeous scenery! Hopefully you didn't have to go all the way to the top of those mountains. ;)
ReplyDeletePretty quilt top. Great views!
ReplyDeleteFun quilt top, Alycia! I fell behind on Debbie's class before I even got started. LOVE those mountain photos!
ReplyDeleteI agree 100% with you on the calendar being at fault! Your quilt looks great. I really like the way the blocks are made just a bit off from what would be expected. It will be a great QOV. And, who can complain about having paying customers! Enjoy your week.
ReplyDeleteNice to have the bonus of those kind of views for the presentation! The new top is a beauty--very simple but looks very complicated!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful quilt top, Alycia. I really like the design. And I agree Feb. should have been a lot longer. Lol. The mountains are so stunning. Happy quilting.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a view! I'll tell you a secret... I've never seen snow IRL before. Hopefully we can get to the aussie snowy mountains this winter.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt looks beautiful and I love how the triangles look like they've had their pointy bits trimmed off. V cool!
Love the quilt and the scenery!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Yes! Once I started participating in quilting finish goals on a monthly basis, ever February I seriously feel like we get robbed. :D :D :D
