Gretchen & I had a date with the long arm on Sunday and I had two quilts ready to go – my Wishes and Mystery quilts. It took me a while to get my Wishes quilt loaded and the computer programmed before I could get the Mystery quilt loaded and programmed as well.
All in all, the two quilts were on the machines for about 6 1/2 hours, but they’re both quilted, and the Wishes quilt is even bound! YAY!
A few years ago when I started quilting again, my mom said ‘You don’t have to make me one’. I think she was concerned about how much money I was spending on fabric (little does she know…). Then at Christmas I showed her these two tops and she was petting Wishes and said ‘oh, I like this one!’. So I thought it could go live with her.
Despite my bad ‘unsewing’ experience with bubbles on my Noteworthy quilt, I decided to use them again on the Mystery quilt, and I think it turned out great…
And the back
I am hoping to make the binding and put it on this weekend. We shall see, we certainly do have lots of things happening on weekends around here!
It’s Wednesday, so I’m linking to Lee!

They both look great! Your Mother is sure to love it!
I’m sure she will! 🙂
The quilts look great – and I love the cheeky smile peeking round the corner!
They are pretty cute quilt models!
These are are my faves. And I love the label. The backs are just as pretty as the fronts. You turned out pretty good, dear Julie.
Love you.
Thanks Becki! Wishes is near the top of my ‘Favorites’ list!
Good for you for finishing things 🙂 I do love the bubbles quilting. http://www.crazyforpurple.com
Thanks! I’m 1/2 way to tying my finishes from last year!
I love your Wishes quilt – those colors are fantastic. And I love the detail of the back. Can you tell me where you purchased your tag labels? Those are the perfect size!
Thanks – I really love this Wishes quilt! I got my labels from JennifersJewels on Etsy – https://www.etsy.com/listing/156578927/60-satin-custom-printed-labels-top?ref=shop_home_active_8
Congrats on the finish & the almost finish! I think the bubbles are great, glad to hear you had a much better experience with them this time!
I do like the bubbles and I think they were a good choice for this quilt. And no ripping is a bonus!
Your quilts are beautiful! Love the colors….I love your little labels, too. Where do you get them?
Etsy! This is my second set of labels – I didn’t love my first set. I bought these from JennifersJewels https://www.etsy.com/listing/156578927/60-satin-custom-printed-labels-top?ref=shop_home_active_8
Thanks Mari!!
I love both of them! Super colours and great quilting effort – those circles are cool!
Both quilts are wonderful – I can’t decide which one I like better!
