Productive Weekend

This is a 51" X 51" wall hanging (top only) called "Peony Star".  I finished this top last night.  The pattern is from "Remembering Adelia" by Kathleen Tracy - published by "That Patchwork Place".

I basted my "Hunter's Star" - I believe I mentioned it in an earlier blog - this weekend.  Now it's ready to be hand quilted.  It is 80" X 92".   I am using a wool batting for the first time - made by Hobbs.   I hope I have quilting thread on hand.  If not, maybe I can pick some up when we go to the quilt show in Texarkana next Saturday.

It's less than 6 weeks until our Spring retreat and I can hardly wait!

See y'all Tuesday night.   I'll be marking diagonal sewing lines on 2 1/2" squares - boring but necessary!
