Quilting Time

It's been quite a long time since I've had time to sit down at the sewing machine.  However, over the last two weeks, I've made it a priority to finish up some projects that were "in process" for way too long.

I don't remember exactly how long ago (probably a couple of years) I bought fabric when I was back in the states and brought it down here to make a small quilt to hang above the TV in our living room.  I designed it (both color and shape) to coordinate with the pillows on our couch.  I started working on the blocks when I first brought down the fabric, but life got in the way.  I dug out the nine finished blocks and decided today was the day to finish the quilt top.  Sewed the last three blocks this morning and just finished sewing it all together.  The quilting and binding will have to wait for another day.  

All in all, I pleased with it;it will bring some much needed color to our white walls.  Hanging quilts in my preferred way to accessorize and brighten up our home--this will make number five.
