Flowers in the morning... and!! Finished ( or not) Friday!!!

 This is an old UFO -  but I can not remember how old.

I can remember being sold the rulers - Creative Grids Scrap Crazy 6' set


But from there - the trail gets hazy.... kinda like the Sun coming up in the morning and creeping over the hill......


 My goal this year has been to tackle the bin of Quilt tops - and this one was in it. I can remember making it, but I just can't remember where the pattern is - or what inspired me to do it..... 


Anyways - it now is backed with a cream floral, and bound with pink scraps, oh and of course 

I quilted it!!!


Bees and Flowers.... because you know... its flowery!!!


My To be Quilted bin is getting lower..... but I think it has some magic curse on it, it seems to fill up as soon as I empty things.... Do your bins do the same thing?


Now it is your turn!! Link up your finishes and enjoy visiting the other wonderful blogs...

Please remember - use your direct link ;-)

Wait, you have a BIN of COMPLETED quilt tops? I'm impressed. You live in a magical land!

Cathy said...

Oh, I've never heard of that ruler. Looks like it is an easy way to make hexies. I like the effect of the big giant flower against a blue sky. The quilting is perfect for it.

And, yes, my bins never seem to empty. Maybe that's a good thing! What would I do if they were suddenly all empty?

That's a cute pattern! I bet it was fun to put that together. I finished up something from my To Be Quilted pile this week, too. It's a good feeling!

Great design using the trapezoid. I don't remember ever seeing it used to form the hexi flower. Love it!

Nancy @ Grace and Peace Quilting said...

So cute--a giant hexie flower!! Keep on trucking through those quilt tops! And I know you will because you have a longarm and know how to use it.

I seem to love everything you stitch and this is no exception. Love the moody kind of light you caught there too. I was interested in this piece because I've been reading about economy of scale and how it can affect quilt making. Interesting!

Pat at Bell Creek Quilts said...

yes! no matter how many novelty ISPY quilts I sew, that bin never seems to have any reduction of inventory! Congrats on finishing an older UFO!

Yvonne from Quilting Jetgirl said...

The flower looks beautiful in the morning light. Congratulations on finishing up another quilt in the to be quilted bin!

Marly said...

Congratulations on finishing your UFO. It's a pretty flower, it and looks like those rulers make sewing hexies on the machine a breeze!

I've been pretty good this year about not starting anything new until I finish a few more WIPs, so my WIP quilt rack has not become thicker. My scrap bins, however... oh, my heavens!!! Even though you don't remember making this, it turned out great. Such a cute pattern!

Delighted Hands said...

Beautiful! I always have a quilting frame queue!!!!

Melisa- pinkernpunkinquilting said...

Beautiful finish.

It's a super sweet flower quilt

Michelle said...

Beautiful quilt! I’m glad it made it out of the bin!

quiltingbydawn said...

Oh yes, my scrap bins never seem to lessen. They are always filled to the top regardless of how many scrap quilts I seem to make!

Nancy said...

Oh, I like this quilt. I'm not a big hexie fan but for this quilt, they are perfect1 That's a great choice for the quilting.

Sylvia@Treadlestitches said...

Hurray, another pretty quilt done! Very nice! So that's what has been piling up all my UFOs, a magic curse! I knew it couldn't just be me putting off quilting stuff lol.

Vicki W said...

That's a very pretty quilt!
