I have a couple of finishes to share today.<\/p>\n

I’ve finished my VMQG Round Robin quilt<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0 When I brought it home from the guild meeting, I pinned it to my design wall and contemplated it for a few days.\u00a0\u00a0 I decided that some of the final borders were too wide – they seemed to be overpowering the center. \u00a0 After debating with myself for a while, I cut some of the outer borders in half lengthwise (flying geese became half-square triangles).\u00a0 I used some of the off-cuts as additional borders, and changed the shape from a rectangle to a square.\u00a0\u00a0 I pieced some of the off-cuts into the back, along with some darker borders I made that didn’t work out for the front.<\/p>\n

I quilted it with a wonky square spiral, starting from the center of the circle block (which was my original block).\u00a0 You can see the quilting better from the back.<\/p>\n

I bound it with black prints and a few solid colors.\u00a0 I’m trying to think of a title for it – any suggestions?<\/p>\n

I found the I really enjoyed the whole Round Robin process, and plan to participate again next year.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I also completed the pillow cover<\/a> I started a couple of weeks ago.\u00a0 I quilted it with black thread and bound it with black fabric.\u00a0 I even put a zipper in the back.\u00a0 I really like how it looks, and I’m going to make several more pillow covers with the same fabrics.\u00a0 I did make the mistake of making the cover a little too large for the pillow form, so I’ll buy a larger form for this cover.<\/p>\n
