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.

Time to share an update on my May OMG (One Monthly Goal).
I had decided that it was time to get the Aunt Bea’s Parlor project out of the closet and finish up the borders.
I also said that I had issues with piecing the borders and that it was the pattern’s fault.
Ahem.
Turns out, as is often the case when I am involved, my issues were due to operator error.
Somehow the piecing just went together so much better when I took the time to mark and pin.
Go figure.
I am linking up with Elm Street Quilts. Check it out and see what other’s have accomplished for their May goals!

It is time to share how I did with my February OMG.
It is a great feeling to report that I accomplished the goal of quilting the Leavenworth quilt, and it is also bound and finished!
I don’t like the border that I finished the quilt with…I think the corners overwhelm the quilt. However, it has grown on me since I washed and dried the quilt. I wish I took a photo of that because it now has wonderful texture!
Finishing two large quilts (Sugar Town) in one month is a record for me! I really had to focus and manage my time, but it is worth it!
The photos aren’t great, but they are proof of reaching the goal line!
