Good morning UFO gang, such lovely March finishes and hooray for the February totals of 53. Looks like I may get that hand quilted charity quilt binding completed in March still working on it. Going to my grand daughter's on the 22nd and will have her to post the pix for us. Now, back to binding, happy SEWing gang.

What wonderful quilts, QuilterMomma! It's so interesting to see the effect of different quilting on two similar quilts.

A binding I will be, a binding I will be, and then there will be a finish!!!!!!

I have 4 done--Yaayyyy! The first three are the "Mile-a-Minute" strip quilts. I miss counted the number of strips and they were not wide enough (about 36" each), so they were on hold until they got borders. The fourth is a Jelly Roll kit I got from "Scrap Angel".

The first pic is one of the strip quilts sans borders, then the 3 with borders. The final pictures are of the jelly roll quilt with pieced borders.

QM your quilts are darling! I agree, I wish my quilting was half as nice. The rubber ducky is perfect! Makes me "think about" digging out some row by row kits I have hidden. :D

motorcyclemad, your strip quilts are so fun!

I need to get busy!

I have always liked the jelly roll mile a minute quilts, they always come out so different. Plus they are fun to quilt because you can play with designs and they still look good. Love your brown one, that is pretty. The way the colors flow.

SheriR, I have a few of those from last year. I have a pattern from every state so I will be working on that in May to get done before the next one comes out in June.

I did finish the binding on the hand quilted charity quilt and when I can post pictures to prove it, I will consider it a Toot for March. So very happy, working on a May finish of a hand embroidery piece that I'm trying to convert to a wall hanging. Now happy SEWing to you gang and good finishes.

Morning everyone!
Motorcyclemad- you've been busy! 3 mile a minutes and a very cool pieced border on the jellyroll quilt---good job!

Cherrybsixty- looking forward to seeing your handquilted March finish,---have fun visiting with your granddaugter.

My March UFO has been languishing while I work on finishing up a WIP, but I should be able to get to it by the end of the week. Meanwhile it's back to being cold here in Central Va. We only got a little sleet and freezing rain (which melted as it hit the ground) out of the big storm that tracked up the coast, but the winds howled all day yesterday and into last night bringing wind chills in the teens. Today the high should be in the thirties--all of which reminds me that I need to get caught up on my temperature quilt.

I hope everyone is staying warm and safe.

Rob
