More UFO's

I also found in my UFO cupboard a small plastic continer holding 265 -  5 1/2"
squares I had made from the fabric in my scrap basket. I had even trimmed them all so it was an easy job to sew them together.




The quilt is 80" X 80" so I hung it on the clothes hoist to take a photo. As you will see, as soon as I pegged it on, the wind came up. It has turned out quite bright, rather a 'happy' quilt and I am very pleased with it.

Wishing All my Blog friends a Very Happy and Healthy 2011.

    The rail fence block is an easy one to sew but always looks good. Yours is no exception and used up some left overs.

    So many beautiful quilts! I admire those who are patient enough to make a big quilt by hand like your diamondquilt.
    In our quilt guild we have an UFO-lottery now and then. It is a funny way to finish some projects. On http://solvtradenlappelag.blogspot.com/ from november you can see some of the finished UFOes.
    Greetings Grete
