Tri your Luck - the Finish!! and Finished.... (or not) Friday!!!

 Happy Friday!!

Be honest - how many of you made Tacos for Cinco de Mayo?  It was totally called for right?

And... did you set a Goal - for your One Monthly Goal ( at Elm Street Quilts) ? I was going to, but the week got away from me. So! I am just setting it for myself. My goal, this month, is to Bind things.... lots of things... and get that pile down.....

But first! I needed to Quilt a little something. Maybe you remember my Tri your Luck quilt top from (ugh) February? I decided it was time to move it to the quilting front.... and I even loaded a movie to get me thru.... The Binding..... Oh YES I did!!  

I bound!!!  haha!! I can see your faces now - wait she bound like two things this year! is it a new epidemic, was there an earthquake?  Did the world stop turning??? 

So here it is!  This is the Tri Your Luck pattern by Debbie Brown quilts - and I did it in Patriotics and ... quilted it - and BOUND it.  I think I might be in Love with striped Bindings now... The more I use them, the more I want to make them!

Alright - Now it is your turn to link up your Finishes.

Suitable for Framing Finish.... and !! Finished ( or not) Friday!!

 Happy Friday!!!  You have made it!! Today... you will know what day it is at all times.... not like Tuesday - when I kept thinking it was Thursday, or Monday , when I didn't have a clue.... Today!!! it is Friday!!

 I got this!!

And I was able to sneak in a little quilting on my January Color Blocks Quilt - "Suitable For Framing" from DebbyBrownQuilts.com

In Debbie's example she did some really cool Spiral Quilting - but since I have a long arm.... I decided to do a Swirl Panto - called Swirls R Us.... I think it worked out nicely.

So this is done for me!! it is 64 x 80 - and ... we are now working on the February Quilt called.... Try your Luck.... hopefully Luck will work out and I will get the top done in the short month!! 

Now it is your turn to Link up your Finishes ( or not) from this week - and let us Ohh and Ahhh

• * Please link the direct link to your post - not the general one to your blog

Suitable For Framing top

I am doing the Color Blocks Quilts class with Debbie Brown

( previous post here: Color Blocks Progress )

And now!! it is topped!

Her pattern is called Suitable for Framing and it was a 64 x 64 inch square quilt.

But!! I am going to guess - you know me by now - and I wanted it to be Quilt of Valor Size - and so!!

I added the bottom and top two borders - and voila! it is now 64 x 80!  Perfect QOV size!!

I chose a Navy Blue with Stars back - and am now prepping it to quilt... It may be February - but thats okay - It will be ready when I am! I have some cool Client quilts to work on first ( and you can see snippets of them on my Quiltygirl FB page )
