All aboard

He saw faces galore
To himself he said....
somebody is gonna be sitting on the
FLOOR

**************************
This is a 21st wedding anniversary (August 15th) present for
my favorite daughter and favorite SIL.

  I ordered a package of 42-10" pre-cut squares from Missouri Star Quilting company
the fabric pattern is Autumn Harvest
I gave the lovely sqs. a boost with fabric I purchased for the orange dividers between rows and pumpkin fabric for the back.
The pale green triangles are called Prairie Points.

 I use a simple straight stitch with gold thread to accent stems on the leaves
and a leaf pattern stitch on the borders.

I have enough sqs. for several more projects too.

  1. Love the Autumn Harvest quilt. As for that photo, I fear the passengers will be squashed like sardines with no room even to sit on the floor... When I see pictures like that, I don't miss living in London!
    Cheers! Gail.

    Ugh, I think your poem captures that scene's promise perfectly! The quilt is gorgeous, Miss C... you might have to do a 'macro' shot though, so we can better appreciate the actual quilting stitch! YAM xx

  10. That looks really nice! Ghostwriter says she used to sew a lot, but doesn't anymore. But sometimes she still visits the local JoAnn Fabrics store just to see what's new.

  12. Oh Cecilia that quilt is absolutely GORGEOUS. I love the material you used and the little "pale blue insets" and borders AND the back too. You are quite the quilter! I know you're having fun learning all the tricks of the quilting trade - it's truly ART with material. Well done. We also love your poem - isn't that photo SCARY?!?!?!

    Hugs, Pam (and Teddy)
