Three Finishes For Sharon

 

It always feels good to have a finish to share, and today I am sharing three recent finishes from Sharon. We have had our usual weekly sewing day the past three weeks, and on each of those days Sharon has finished a quilt. They are beautiful, of course, and I think you will be quite impressed.

The most recent finish is this gorgeous blue beauty. It is the Turning Twenty pattern which is a super-fast finish. Sharon had started it earlier and brought it to finish on Tuesday. Is this some dreamy loveliness or what!?!

The week before Turning Twenty, Sharon finished her version of Scrappy Irish Chain. You may recall that we worked on this pattern together - mine with bright yellow and hers with soft peach. Here is Sharon's finished quilt top.

The scrappy squares are largely leftover bits of various 3 Sisters fabrics which all work so well together, and of course the peachy-pink plays nicely with them, too. This is a simple quilt to make, yet we both felt that it was quite a ginormous undertaking, mostly because of the size. Those blocks are 18 inches and with all the seams in the pieced scrappy blocks, it is quite heavy.

And, if we go back a week before the Scrappy Irish Chain finish, we have Sharon's jelly roll challenge quilt which was finished in a snap. This was a fun quilt to work on (yes, I made one, too) and it broke the labor-intense focus on the Irish Chain. Sharon used more of her 3 Sisters stash to make this very gorgeous - and very simple - 9-patch and snowball quilt. I love the combination of those two blocks together. What a super finish.

We are getting stuff done around here, aren't we??? I love feeling so productive! It's funny how frequently our conversations always drift around to "what will we work on next?" That eagerness to start a new quilt never fades. Thankfully! I suppose all quilters do it to varying degrees.

What fun we have when we sew together, and we are finishing things! This weekly sewing date has worked out well for us.

Happy Quilting, Friends!
