Day at Loon Lake Quilt is Complete!

 

Day at Loon Lake Quilt

 

Complete with the label in the lower right corner.  This style of label is easily readable by flipping up the corner.

 

 

On the label, I made note of the wool batting -- in case anyone int he future thinks they want to wash it. 

I have to say that I was really impressed with this Quilter's Dream Wool Batt.  I am looking forward to working with it again - on a bed quilt.

 

The pattern is by Nancy Davis Murty for Bee Creative Studios. 

This quilt has been at least 15 years in the making, so the pattern will be hard to find.

Here's a close-up of each block (for the record):

Day at the Lake - pin-basted and ready for quilting.

First task is to outline all the appliqued characters so that they pop out.

Next, it will be time for quilting the backgrounds. 

I can't wait to see this one done and hanging on the wall.

I used Quilters Dream Wool Batting this time.

 

This one should look familiar: The Starlight / Winter Blues Quilt #2

I plan to do another diamond grid on this one.

 

Spend the holiday weekend enjoying the new air conditioning, and sandwiching 4 quilts for pin basting.

Holly's Christmas Quilt -- all pin-basted and ready for quilting.

I am looking for the right Holly motif to do the freemotion quilting.

A wool batt -- because this quilt will be out and in use around Christmas time. 

I think it's the Maywood Christmas series.
