Purple Diamond chain Top !! and Finished ( or not) Friday!

 I finished my July Purple Diamond Chain Rainbow Scrap Challenge top just under the wire!!! - Go me!

And of course, you will see it again - I mean I still needs to be Quilted ( and bound 😱)  



I think it turned out about 40 ish x 48 ish inches - so a nice little small lap quilt... and its Purple - Who knew I loved Purple so much! I did not, and Now I want it everywhere!!!

It was also our County Fair week - So I entered a Quilt... It was in the group Category as the blocks were all made by different people, I pieced it, Quilted it . and - oh ya! I bound it.

You can see the full quilt here : Starry Log Cabin  I wish there had been enough room to display the whole thing. But!! I did a write up about Quilts of Valor, and they printed that and had it next to the quilt.

We won First in our Class, and Champion in the category  - so Yay us!!!


















This next quilt is not mine, but I quilted it. It was pretty exciting to see that this one Won Overall Reserve Grand!!! 

It's an amazing quilt and I really enjoyed Quilting it - so it made my heart happy that it did so well!!

hope you all had a great week too - and got some stitching in!

It is now time for you to brag! Strut your stuff! show us what happened in your world... and better yet - what did you get to the Finish part???

    I love purples, and the Diamond Chain has some really pretty ones. I do intend to make a diamond chain this year. Congratulations on the win - such a beauty - and the one you quilted is gorgeous.

    That is a great job on the purple quilt! I am not a big fan of purple or pink but I can appreciate their beauty, especially in a quilt! Congrats on the Fair entry wins!
