I'm in the mood for Basting!


I think I'm obsessed with squares!  I have 3 quilt tops finished and they are all squares and rectangles, but it is nice to finally have some tops pieced and be getting a bit closer to some quilting.

Charm Pack Cherry (free pattern FatQuartershop)

Quilt for Mexico (Creative Quilting Pattern)
Bachelors Walk (own design with a little help from Claire!)
This one is the only one of my FAL 2014 Quarter 1 goals I have a hope of finishing so this weekend it's going under the needle!  That is after I've pressed and basted it first.  I don't think I have enough safety pins to baste 3 quilt tops so I'm going to try and spray baste this one and pin baste My Quilt for Mexico as even though I absolutely love the Charm Pack Cherry quilt it doesn't have a deadline to aim to and will have to come last on the list!


After this, I think it might be time for some triangles!   There is a Triangle Quilt-A-Long happening at the Sassy Quilter and I have a bundle of Denyse Schmidt Florence that I have no plans for and a 60 degree ruler I bought but never used so I think this is the project for it.  (And I've not forgotten about the 86 flying geese I have to make!)

    I love squares right now too, they're great for when you want the maths and seams to be simple, a bit of a mindless sew giving you time to think :)

    WOW! look at your gorgeous tops. The gingham charm one is just sweet and adorable. The design of your blue one is spectacular. Get to basting, missy :)

    All three of your tops are beautiful! I think Bachelors Walk is my favourite. Great job. Thanks for linking to TGIFF.

    Wow, you've been busy! I go through phases too. Love that Bachelor's Walk quilt you designed, especially how it comes out to the edge.
