I had alot of sewing time this weekend and was able to get both pillows done for my couch. My youngest said the tree pillow is his favorite. I think that is one pattern that I would make again.
I also got the binding done on my Charming Stars quilt. My first finish for 2012!!
Here is the beginning stages of my New Abundance quilt. I am actually almost done quilting it. I decided to do straight lines following the angles of the pattern, making the lines 1/4 inch apart, so it is taking alot longer than planned. I am hoping by this weekend I will be putting the binding on.
I have also been working on a wirly gig quilt. I am finally using a fabric collection that I bought 2 years ago plus some from my stash. No photos yet. My youngest was helping me chain stitch the pieces last night - big mistake he about took my fingers off. Maybe in a few years he can try again :)

I love that tree pillow, too! It's just so bright and neat! (And it caught my eye in the WIP Wednesday line-up at Freshly Pieced!)
Beautiful cushions, beautiful quilts - that Charming Stars quilt is so very nice, I find! I made one for my mum, and I'm thinking I might make another - a little more scrappy than mum's... :)
Great fabric selection for that Charming Stars quilt. I love those two pillows too!
Love your Charming Stars quilt. The tree pillow is great. I was thinking it would be cool to make a quilt with large tree blocks. So many quilts so little time. Thanks for the inspiration.
Darling pillows...I especially like the piping on the edges! Great work!
Your star quilt is beautiful!
Happy Sewing - CJ
Your eye for color is superb! It's all so lovely...
Is there a pattern available for Charming Stars quilt. Great way to use up charm packs…eye catching.
