I picked this fat little package up from the Post Office
just as I was driving out of town heading for
The Chook Shed on Friday afternoon....
I couldn't wait to arrive and cut it open...
Hiding inside were some yummy peppermint boiled lollies
from Julie that have "Julies Quilting" printed in them....
Too Flash Julie........
A lovely thank you card and a hand knitted
washer as well, you are too kind Julie....
Inside were my 2 quilts that Julie collected from my house
the week before, how's that for quick quilting?
My Apple Harvest Flannel quilt that Julie has quilted with
leaves and pumpkins, perfect for my quilt...
The other is a Thimbleberries Jelly Roll Race Quilt....
This is the quilting on the back....It looks lovely....
I managed to get the bindings sewn on by machine
at the party over the weekend....
I chose this green for the flannel quilt and have it pinned and
ready for some hand stitching during the week....
I used the same print as the border for the other quilt, also
on and pinned waiting to be hand stitched....
Thanks again for being so speedy Julie, I love them both...
Stay tuned for all the fun at the Chook Shed party...
Until next time, Happy Stitching....

Wow that is really speedy and such beautiful quilting..
Gorgeous quilting!!!
was so exciting to see your quilts all quilted esp since I was there when you finished the borders............
quick turnaround indeed Kate - glad to see I'm not the only one who pins the bind over before stitching!
I'm sure it was a great weekend at Chooky's for you !
The quilting really suits the quilts. Julie is doing lovely work. Can't wait to see them finished.
This cold weather is perfect for binding quilts. They look lovely.
Two quilt finishes...wowsers..you're on fire!! Love the pumpkin quilting :)
Wow....a wee bit faster than hand quilting. Expect you'll need them on your bed tonight.
ah shucks Kate, you say the niceest things!... glad the parcel arrived on time...you should have seen us (Bruce & me) packing it...I taped it all up nice & tight then realised I forgot to put in the excess fabric, washer, lollies & thank you card, so I had to bag it and tape it onto the parcel (wasn't going to unpack what I had already done!).. looked like an otterman when it was all ready to go!
It was rolled up so tightly , Jewells must be a whiz with a sleeping bag. They were just gorgeous , bet your living being under that flannel , doing the binding
