Today I'm going to try to finish up a little bit more of it as I still have a rather large pile of black and green fabrics.
Friday was my birthday and my mom and sister came in for the weekend to visit! They stopped at a bunch of quilt stores on the way here and brought me some goodies:
The yardage is from the Blank Quilting Dragon Magic Collection and yes, that is a jelly roll of BLITZEN BY BASIC GREY. I have been lusting after some of this fabric since I first saw it a month or two ago online.
We've basically just been hanging out and eating and kibitzing since they got into town Friday afternoon and its been wonderful. They brought me two quilted quilts to put bindings on and I'll show those off later this week. Hope your weekends have been wonderful!
Happy Birthday! Nice fabric too. My family never seems to get the memo that what I'd actually like for my birthday is FABRIC!! No matter how many hints I drop. Oh well, I guess I just get to shop for it myself then. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday. I love the quilt back...almost as much as I like the front. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHappy Belated Birthday....fabric is always a pleaser for anytime!
ReplyDeleteSaw your link on Plum & June's latest post--and I'm always delighted to find another grad student quilter. :) I'm in my 5th year (please just kill me now) in a history PhD program.
ReplyDeleteI love your Twist of Lime quilt! What a unique color scheme!
I love the colors. That is a fancy back. It is pretty enough to be the front! Happy Birtday!
ReplyDeleteFab detail and love the colourway, happy birthday :) ChrissieD from P&J Blog Hop
