2020 Finish-A-Long: One more 4th Quarter finish ~ Seasonal Silhouettes - December

Happy to say I have one more finish for this quarter!  I love this design from the  Seasonal Silhouettes pattern book by Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts.  Aside from the May Block with the bicycle, this is probably my favorite!

I quilted this one differently than all the others, doing the background quilting first and then the applique after that.  Very happy with the results!

The pattern called for beads in the center of the pointsettia, but I found these little prong flowers in my stash that worked out perfectly.  It's a good thing I kept some scrapbooking "stuff"  :)

This makes 3 projects finished for this quarter ~ I'm good with that!

2020 Finish-A-Long: 4th Quarter Finishes ~ Patchwork Barn & Seasonal Silhouettes November

It just dawned on me that I didn't post my 4th Quarter List on here as well as Instagram.

I'm happy to say I have two finishes so far this quarter!

First ~ the November Seasonal Silhouettes wall hanging.  I had the pieces fused, so I was able to finish it pretty quickly.

Second ~ after almost 3 years in the making, I finally finished my Patchwork Barn!  Happy Days!  I've never done that much applique on a quilt, so I think that was the reason I kept putting off finishing it, but I'm really happy with the result.  And I like that I changed the pattern up a little by adding 1" horizontal sashing between the 6" blocks.  It just gives it a little more "breathing" room!

I found the 108" backing at Backside Fabrics and the colors just fit perfectly!

That makes 2 finishes for the last quarter of 2020 ~ hoping to get one more done this year.
