Quilt stuff

Ok, on the quilting front, no quilts were ruined in the flood :)
I finished the last quilt in house yesterday. It was for Alice, the lady who did some ripping out for me. I do still have over a dozen baby quilts and 5-7 QoV's, etc. to do for charity. And, the LQS has two T-shirt quilts for me to come get this weekend, or early next week.

I took advantage of the lull and worked on my little Trapunto wall hanging. This was a technique I learned in the class with Karen McTavish. I have chosen a celtic interlocking heart border. I marked and quilted it with the vanish thread last night. I did some of the trimming away, but have way more to do. They say this is the most laborious part of Trapunto. So far, no snips to the quilt top - yeah!!

I'm hoping to get this done in time to show at Quilt Guild next month during Show & Tell. It will be my first Show and Tell, cross your fingers!!
