A New Quilt Finished

 Hi Everyone,

Today I have pictures of a new project to share.  This is my QuiltCon 2022 fabric challenge quilt.  This quilt is called ‘Candy Box 3’.

 

 

I finished it just in time for submission.  This also is my October OMG which I'm very happy with the end result.

October OMG

 It's time again to set the goal for October.  Time sure is flying by fast and we are reaching the last quarter of the year.  I've been working on the quilt called 'Candy Box 3'.  The design idea of this quilt is based loosely on my 'Intersection Block'.  This block is so versatile and easy to make.  If you're a member of the MQG, you can check it out in the MQG Journal on the MQG website.  Here is a picture of the work in progress.

 

The goal for this month is to finish quilting and binding it.  I sure hope it will look good enough to submit to QuiltCon.  🙏

You can check out all the goal link up at the Elm Street Quilts. 

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day!

Sneak Peek of the New Project and Sept. OMG

I'm participating in the 2022 MQG fabric challenge.  These are the fabrics from Windham Fabric that I'm using for this quilt.

 

 

Here is a sneak peek of a test block.

 

 

I'm taking a 2-week vacation to Idaho Falls, Salt Lake City and St. George Utah to visit friends and family.  My goal for September is to finish the top and baste this quilt for quilting.   

 

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day!
