CONGRATS on the engagement! The ring is beautiful.
I really like the afghan. Those little baubles are cute.
I like your freehand star quilting. It looks fun.
I'm with you on the mystery quilt. I like the pattern, but would have chosen different fabric. Definitely should be finished, and the fabric is very nice. It'll feel good to finish it.
The bus quilt is great. I remember the label -- fabulous! Wow! You're going to get a lot finished. I'm envious.
I just love the pinwheel squares. What great fabric choices! Can't wait to see it (or both of them) finished.
Great to see you!

Thank you! I just finished two more squares on the pinwheel quilt and am definitely going to be turning it into two separate quilts. The fabrics are mostly scraps and fabrics I pulled from my stash. So far I haven't purchased anything specifically for them... but now that I am making them into two quilts I think I am going to need to buy some sashing and backing.

That pattern for the mystery quilt is pretty cool. (I agree, it's a bit much with the fabric though all the fabrics on their own are pretty great looking.)

Nice to see the bus quilt again - looks good! Nice that it's so close to being finished.

I love the fabrics. I have a little extra of them laying around so hopefully I will be able to make something else. I have more of the main fabric that I was planning to use as a border... but I don't want to use it on this quilt, I think it would push it into being even busier. I am just going to finish it off the way it is, maybe add some black to calm it down a bit. Someone somewhere will appreciate it. :)

It's nice to see you! Congratulations on the engagement...

I love that quilt pattern, and I actually do like the fabric! And yes, I am a fan of seizure-inducing quilt tops.

I love that Volkswagen bus patch.

Happy Crafting!

Thanks. I am gonna try a lot harder to be back. My work schedule just kinda got back to normal... so that should help things.

Thanks! Its nice to know some people like the top... my mom even commented tonight on how she thought with some black it would calm it down and look good too.

Your ring is gorgeous, thanks for sharing :) I really love the fabrics for the pinwheel quilt, the green and purple are my favorites.

The "not great fabric choice" one is actually really amazing. It's weird and interesting and makes me think of Mondo from Project Runway. :D
