The Finale - Hostess with Heart wrapup

Bound

Labeled

Hostess with Heart (64" x 84")


Total time invested: 14-15 hours piecing and quilting
Pattern: "Cottage Lane"; March/April 2008 Fons & Porter's Love of Quilting (with modified borders)
Quilting thread: Aurifil

And since I had a bit more time....
I finished piecing and sewing the borders of With Heart

This top measures just a wee bit smaller at 64"x84" before quilting. So, shortly here I plan to head out to the quilt shop in search for some backing fabric for this quilt. Jody insists on purchasing this quilt as well....."... as it is a reminder of the fun story of these past few days." I'm just thrilled that I will be setting a new "Amy-Record" because of these past few days. ;0) Two complete quilts in under a week.
