2018 Finished Quilts

Another year bites the dust!  It's one I am oh so ready to say good-bye too and it is reflected in the number of actual finishes for me.  I wish I had more, but at least there are a few here to look back on.

January:  A new grandson is expected in March and this is his quilt.  All handstitched on royal blue tricot.




The Facebook Group had a Quilt-A-Long for Nifty Thrifty last May and I have managed to finish one.  Nifty Thrifty #1 - First cut 7/6/14 and last stitch 1/27/18.  Design by Bonnie Hunter.



February:  On Ringo Lake Bonnie Hunter Mystery Quilt  First stitch 11/26/17 Last stitch 2/21/18.


and the back:


Baby Boy Ashton  First stitch taken 2/1/18 Last stitch 2/23/18.  No real name to the quilt.


Nifty Thrifty #2 - Design by Bonnie Hunter -- First cut taken 7/6/14 Last stitch 2/27/18.  Also worked on in the Quilt-A-Long last May.


The two together - Interesting how just a change in sashing changes the whole look.


July:  The Ugly Fat Quarter Challenge Quilt --  "A Modern Buckeye Beauty"  First Stitch taken 7/21/18 on a Fat Quarter received in the mail.  Last stitch 7/31/18.  I won third place with this sweetie.

Only picture I have of the back


October: Wall Hanging from a kit picked up in Montana.  Last stitch taken 10/6/18.


Autumn Splendor - My 4th mystery quilt offered online.  All original design.  First stitch taken 8/20/18 and last one 10/25/18.  Custom quilted by Maria Denise Hall.



"Frolicking Garlic Knots" - Friendship Exchange started in 2017.  Last stitch on Halloween 2018.


November:

Friendship Round Robin gifted to Val -- only here because I did the binding and so put the final stitch in.

Custom Quilted by Maria Denise Hall.  It's just so delightful and such fun for our very own Bobbin Fairy.



And that's it for this year.  December just didn't happen at all --- I'm not sure why but onward to 2019 we go.
