The last time I posted about this quilt it looked like this:
I decided to change up my plan entirely and turn it into an on-point rail fence. I used the backing fabric for the setting triangles and then decided that it was too small, so I used the last half yard of the yellow fabric as a 3 inch border.
(Clara tried to "help".)
Much better with a border! I'm planning to use the same fabric from the setting triangles for the binding too.
And now it is all pin basted and ready to quilt! I am planning to try to do some simple custom quilting on it. I am planning to do squiggles in the rail fence block, loops in the setting triangles, and loops in the border as well.

November Wishes Block
Well, I'm not making a lot of progress on anything else, so I figured today I would show my November Wishes QAL block.
Just December to go now! I can't wait to see this one all come together! :)

Finished Quilts for Twins
They are finished! Hooray!
I managed to finish both the quilting on the purple-mint-peach quilt AND the pink-yellow-blue quilt on Wednesday, and got the bindings finished this morning.
I quilted the pink-yellow-blue quilt with a simple meander and used a pink flannel backing and a yellow binding.
For the purple-mint-peach quilt, I used a loop-de-loop meander. The backing on this one is purple and the binding is a peach fabric that I used in some of the blocks that I made.
All ready to send off to some very cute sisters!
