It is finished!
What a great feeling to have this old UFO completed and out of the sewing room!
For those who are curious, the quilt is about 68″ square.
It is difficult to photograph the quilting and the texture, but I tried.
More of that texture will be seen when I have washed the quilt.

I haven’t made any more progress on the Christmas Lone Star.
But I have managed to sandwich and quilt the seven table mats.
I really thought that was as far as I was going to get, but I got them all bound, too!
It has been a productive month!

Last week, I completed the free motion quilting in the diamonds of the Christmas Lone Star.
This week, I free motion quilted a simple up and down line design in the red sashing.
You can see the texture on the back of the quilt.
I have to admit, it does feel nice to be moving this old UFO forward.
Christmas in July has also motivated me to work on gifts.
I have seven hexagon table toppers (or placemats, if you like) sewn together. I talked about this pattern in my previous post.
I am feeling pretty smart finally using up some very old fabric to make these cute toppers.
In keeping with the use-it-up theme, my next goal is to pull some scrap batting out of a large overflowing tub and piece some frankenbatts for these. If I have time, I will find some backings, too.
