FInishing...

I've been working hard on finishing quilts and quilt-tops.  I just took 4 quilts to the quilter and picked up two... one of which is now bound, the other has yet to be. 

Buster Cat Does Halloween was a block exchange done by someone else.  I bought the 9 basic blocks at a boutique.  They were unfinished (not sewn, just fused).  I drafted 3 more and added them to make the quilt 'not square'.  Took this one to a local quilter for custom quilting


En Provence is a mystery quilt designed by Bonnie Hunter.  This is my top sans outer border (the outer border that shows at the end of the bed is actually the border of the quilt that is on the bed under the EP top.  You can see lots of other finished tops and quilts from the Mystery here.


 Another view of En Provence:


 En Provence outer borders, which I added to make the quilt not-square. (the top and bottom borders are wider than the side borders.)


Fancy Forest was a Block of the Month from a local shop.  This is a picture of it before it was quilted.  I really like it now that it's done... I'm in the process of putting the last few hand stitches in the binding... Then it's time for a label, and done.


 Escher Goes to Bali is a modern house tesselation that I pieced, using my winnings from the 2014 Row by Row Challenge (25 batik fat quarters).  Really had fun with this one:
