The Auntie Quilt - Finish #25

Yes! Yes! Yes! done and delivered. This is the last of the quilts that traveled with me to Niagara Falls. I completed the binding the morning I flew out. Needless to say, in the rush of last minuteness, I forgot all my clothes and had to go shopping. The good news is that I had a ton of room in my suitcase after transporting four quilts.

Love this Holiday Hustle pattern and kit from Sew Lux. This is my fifth quilt using this pattern and I still really love it. Turns out perfect every time.

I used High Street by Lily Ashbury so the fabrics match her daughters two Jacob's Ladder quilts. Auntie Annies quilt also has a the pink and green and the backing fabric for the backing. I really liked this touch.

The 60th Wedding Anniversary was so fun! Wonderful catching up with everyone during a happy occasion!!! And all the quilts were a big hit!

Pink Jacob's Ladder - Finish 24

Another cousin quilt. A pink Jacob's Ladder to compliment the green finish last week. Laura is the pink sister. It seemed only fitting to use the same material, High Street by Lily Ashbury, for both sisters.

I quilted through the middle of the block to emphasize the secondary pattern made by the squares. Love the offset square design.

I am very pleased with this finish. The quilt will be coming with me to Niagara Falls.

Green Jacob's Ladder - Finish 23

A cousin quilt. I am working my way through the cousins and it is great fun. I have made a green Jacob's Ladder for Jenny, as when I asked what colour quilt she answered green of course. Well I should have known.

I used High Street fabric by Lily Ashbury. I have used her material before and love it! The mix of bright colours is just so wonderful. And as a bonus she works right on top of my local quilt store. How fabulous is that!

I quilted through the middle of the block to accentuate the the secondary pattern and I love how it turned out. The backing is an Anna Maria Horner print that ties everything together. Perfect!

This quilt is also coming to Niagara Falls with me.

WIP Wednesday - Climbing to Heaven

I am making 2 Jacob's Ladder Quilts. This quilt block has been on my bucket list since I first saw it. I am not sure why, but I think I have a thing for 9 block variations.

One in green.

One in pink.

Sisters, my cousins, so the same quilt, different colour ways. And one for the mom. A quilt kit I had ordered from Sew Lux. And then promptly forgot about in a flurry of Christmas sewing. I had an aha moment when I found the half made quilt. Perfect for my Aunt! Different pattern same material.

Coordination, planned and serendipitous! Sometimes I amaze myself.
