Rose Prairie Quilts and Farm

This is the fraternal twin to the other Flying Geese Quilt I finished last month and is also one of my my finishes for   on the windy side They both turned out better than I thought and they will make great present this Christmas. Had an audience while taking these shots. Believe these young heifers wanted to have their picture taken. linking to   http://www.onthewindyside.co.nz/2015/09/2015-finish-along-q3-finishes.html and binding blitz soon http://www.juliekquilts.blogspot.com/

  My finish for the week was the Thangles sampler that I started way back and can now cross it off my list.  I learned from this quilt is I am not a Thangles girl. But I did like the fact of taking a strip and being able to mark, sew and trim away to get your HST One of the best part is that I used only fabric from my stash. I do not have a lot of batiks but from the few I had, the one seen here for the alternate blocks work out perfect. I couldn't of picked out one better. I had also had set aside for another project the dark brown that I used to seperate the blocks from the border. The pictures are not very good, at the time I took these we were being drench in rain and the natural light was poor. The quilt measures 67x54 Linking up with  crazy mom quilts Sarah at  confessions of a fabric addict

This is my February's Lovely Finish, Nested Churn Dash. I am so pleased with how it turned out. I wanted to thank those how left comments with their suggestion on how they would finish it. I am going to take their suggestion along with my friend Mary and combine them. I will go with grey to frame it in but I'll use it in the binding.  A change from my scrappy binding like I was planning. And will have that darkness of grey but not as thick as the sashing.  Thank you everyone. So now for a few other finishes. This is an addition to the blocks I started for RSC15 I had these blocks left over from making Breast Cancer quilts many years ago (8 yrs).  Now I have another donation quilt. This one is crib size and will make a cute little girls quilt. Then I found these block while looking for something. These date back again to 2008 & 2009.
