Blue Monday ( the BQ4) is finished and!!! FInished!!! (or not) Friday!!

Happy Friday!! Whaaaatttt? Its already Friday? Where did Monday thru Thursday go? Holee cow  - this week flew by. I love to blog so that I can remember what I did, and now I am not sure what I did that made this week go by so fast!!! 

Back in June, I got the BQ4 Quilt pattern and started playing with it in some beautiful Blues!!

Today!! that quilt is Quilted, and bound, and ( no laughing) draped over a dining room chair. But it looks so pretty there!!






I like how it turned out! and I really like that combination of Blues! That striped binding just makes the whole thing!!! I will tell you that this quilt pattern challenged my brain, caused me to think a little, and actually plan - so maybe it was a good thing to challenge me eh?

Hey- I do know what I did... remember a few weeks ago I sprained my ankle? well - Since I was almost recovered on my right foot, I let the doc talk me into moving my Big Toe surgery up - and I did that. I whined. it was on my left foot - I look goofy trying to walk and figure out which foot causes the least pain to do certain movements....  Just so you know, I think this is why I don't go to doctors... they hurt!

Heres to a restful weekend, and a Quilty one!!


What happened in your world? Are you still working on Finishes?

  10. The pattern is a great way to show off large-scale prints. Your toe will feel so much better before you know it.

  14. Beautiful blues! A lovely finish. Well at least you have the surgery over and the toe can heal along with the ankle. Hopefully everything heals quicky and you aren't hobbling for too long.

  16. Gosh, that’s gorgeous. I’ve made a couple of BQ designs.I like them. A good pattern for larger prints. I’m trying to get the binding done so I can post to finished or not. I have had so many “ nots”, that it would be fun to post a Finish!

  18. What a great pattern. You did it proud. I had fun trying to deconstruct the pattern and then letting my mind drift as to how it could be done as a RSC quilt.
