I'm back! Sorry it's been so long. I'm not sure who's reading my blog anyway. These days I post mostly to Instagram, but I like to blog about finishes. I have finished 4 quilts since my last post!!! I'm going to share one today which is actually 2 quilts made from the same fabrics. I've also updated the My Finishes section of my blog if you want to see photos of the other finishes, although I will blog about them next time.
I made 2 rag quilts using flannel, several prints from Moda and others unidentified. I got most of the fabrics at Marden's in Maine (great prices!) and at some quilt shops along the way. They both measure about 60 x 70 inches so they are great cuddly couch warmers :)... or throws :) I gave one to someone I work with for Secret Santa. I gave the other to my Sister-in-law in Washington state. I forgot to take pictures of one of them finished, so most of the pics are of the Secret Santa one.
This is the link to the full photo album.
Here are some posted for the blog:
Linking up at Link a Finish Friday!
Have a great day everyone!
Until next time,
Mike.

Many of my followers and quilting friends have told me that I need to change the name of my blog because I am not an amateur, but at heart, I always will be. I call myself an amateur to remind me that every stitch, every fabric shape and every seam is more perfect when it looks like it was made by a human being (especially if it’s me, and I am not perfect). This way I spend more time admiring my finished masterpieces and less time ripping out stitches. This is just a little bit of my journey...
