Projects underway

Just finishing up a quilt made from a kit I bought at Houston in 2012:  Beach Glass by Weeks Ringle.  The top is done, now I need to do the part I always put off,,,,, the quilting.  But not this time! Tonight I'm basting and for the next two days, nothing but quilting.

At this time I have soooo many tops ready to be quilted.  It's overwhelming.  Here's the list:

Bed sized quilts:
Roseville Album (Kim McLean applique quilt... took a year to complete the top) Below is the original from Glorious Color:


The Two of Us (The Quilt Show's block of the month last year, lots of paper piecing and applique) Here's a picture of the original in Houston, taken in October, 2012.

Rose of Sharon block of the month (all needle-turned applique, in batiks)  Here's one block:

Snowball quilt (citrus colors, pieced)
Twirling stars (pieced, in 30s/40s fabrics and white)
Irish chain and roses (pinks and yellows on white, with prairie point edge)
Trip around the world (in purples, greens, oranges)
Kaffe turning twenty ( very bright, setting is diagonal rows)
Butterfly quilt (made with vintage hand appliqued blocks)

Wall hangings:
Round Robin (made in my quilt bee, center is a North Carolina Lily)
Halloween cat (black cat leaping over pumpkins)
Cosmic spiral (made in a class with Barbara Olson)
Hummingbird (small, hand appliqued, made in David Taylor class)

I'm sure this isn't all......it's just all I can remember.
