July OMG is done

It's time to reveal the finished quilt of July OMG.  This is a gift for a dear friend who just had a new baby girl.  It will be delivered this coming Sunday.


 

Now go to the Elm Street Quilts to see all the July finish linkups.  There are a lot of cool finished projects.

 

I am planing to participate in the 2021 Make-A-Difference challenge from the MQG.  The theme is Trees, and the entry fee of $12 will be donated to Trees for the Future.  Here is my entry.

 

19" x 19"



When I was making it, I wasn't so sure I liked it.  I was trying to capture the morning sunrise with trees in the horizon to send a message of a new dawn, new trees, and new lives.  There is hope for the mother earth.  I almost stopped and canceled everything, but I didn't.  I'm glad I didn't and now I kind of like it.  It's whimsical and fun to look at.


I am still working on a project behind the scenes, which is a quilt for the Simply Moderne magazine.  I'm using Bella Solid from Moda's contributions and fun threads sent from the WonderFil company.   Here's the samples.



This quilt will be in Winter Issue.  I'll be able to talk about it then.


Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful week.
