Week 3 & Week 4 - Villa Rosa Challenge
Villa Rosa Designs is hosting a "6 Quilts in 6 Weeks" Challenge. The quilts are being shared on their facebook page (5) Villa Rosa Designs | Facebook It's not to late to join in. I am considering extending my personal challenge to 10 weeks. You can read all the details about it here
Join the 6 Quilts in 6 Weeks Challenge Today!.
Last week I posted my pink finish for RSC so I didn't get my "Week 3" posted here; tho I did share it on Villa Rosa's facebook page. My week 3 finish was a UFO top I made last year. I was given some bags of flannel scraps and I was inspired to make some tops from the Honey Bouguet pattern. Here is one of them.
Here is the back which is also a flannel.
Now for my Week 4 Challenge finish ...........
This is a big one. I pieced and quilted it this month. I will be turning it into a quillow; currently working on the pocket. It finishes at 58 x 82. I did alot of ruler quilting on it using a very large quarter circle template by Amanda Murphy. It has 80/20 batting and is quilted with a Glide thread on top and Bottom Line gray in the bobbin.
The backing is the Queens Garden wide back from Marshalls Dry Goods.

RSC for Pinks
I made this quilt top last year from a bag of flannels donated to me by a quilter friend who doesn't like to work with flannel. Lucky for me, I find no difference working with flannel. There were all sorts of flannel prints in the bags, so I tried to group them into batches that might work together.
This is a version made from the pink family. The areas that appear red in the photo is really a dark fuscia pink. Pic was taken indoors and I am still not very skilled with photography. I don't know if I used a pattern, a photo from the web or just worked with what I had. It finished up at 30 x 35.

6 Quilts in 6 Weeks Challenge - Week 2
The 6 quilts in 6 weeks challenge is taking place on the Villa Rosa Design page on Facebook.You can find out about this challenge on this blog post Join the 6 Quilts in 6 Weeks Challenge Today!
Instead of whipping up a new quilt top, this week I went to the flimsy/ufo pile to unveil 3 Honey Bouquet tops and one very large The Lady top all made last year. I started easy and prepared the Honey Bouquet child size top created from my scrap bin of blues. I made 9 blocks, some are oriented 180 degrees and it finished at 45 x 54. I quilted it on my very fancy domestic Janome. I used a very dark navy solid fleece on the back, 80/20 batting and navy Glide thread top and bobbin.
Here is the Villa Rosa pattern that I used to make this quilt. You can get your own copy here
