UFO Finish for March!!!!

I showed you this project a few weeks ago, well it is finished:)  This quilt is made up of siggies from the Dear Jane alternate group.  Back in 2008 we had a Birthday Siggy exchange.  I was lucky enough to end up with 90 Birthday Siggies wishing me "Happy Birthday.

Since my Birthday is in February, I chose the amethyst color fabric to make the 9 patch alternate blocks.  I also used a lavender pearle cotton to tie this quilt off.  I love tying quilts off...guess that is because my grandmother always tied her quilts.  Don't get me wrong, I love hand and machine quilting too, and some quilts just "have to" be hand or machine quilted, but others say, "It's Okay, tie me off !"


Happy Quilting.  Hope you all have a blessed week, in whatever you choose to do:)

Hugs,
Terry

Nothing wrong with tying a quilt! I did that for years and years, then I hand quilted several. Now that I know how, I usually machine quilt mine, but only straight lines. That's all I can do! LOL I still like the look of tied quilts. They seem simpler and more old fashioned to me I guess.
