Progress!

I've finished my BIQR applique, now to put borders on...I am trying out these hour glass blocks in fall colours...my flash does not work so I had to add light in picasa...

I finished my 9 Lives quilt, putting on the binding at the retreat, but I didn't get around to taking a photo of it until today.

I love your BIQR applique with the blocks around the centre. I am looking forward to seeing this at show and tell at LFQG!

I really like the 9 lives quilt. I am not a cat person but that one is interesting.

9 Lives looks fantastic! Love to see hand quilting on a contemporary piece.
Your BIQR quilt is coming along wonderfully.......you have been busy haven't you?

Carol, I like the hourglass blocks with your applique. The fall colors are great. Your 9 Lives quilt is great. I liked seeing the comic book at retreat that you used for inspiration.

Believe it or not, I keep a tab in my web browser with this page open all the time at work, and I sometimes come over and just gaze upon the 9 Lives photos. So wonderful. Do you have any larger photos of it? It's truly an inspiration.
