Yeah, yeah, I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted. Work has been crazy and although I’ve been doing stuff, it’s been hard to find the time to take pictures, post, etc. If anyone has suggestions for ways to stream line the camera->flickr->blog pipeline, I’d be happy to know.

Anyways, this was the Grace Circle quilt for October. I asked for blue and gold courthouse steps.

I did free motion longarm quilting and loaded the quilt in the wide direction so that I could go down the hourglass shapes. In the navy, I just did random cubes.

Here you can see some of the border cubes. Overall, I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. These group quilts area always cool to me because you have so many different things coming in, but they always seem to work out. Love that about quilting!

And a shot of the back. I kinda wish I’d used a contrast thread because i think it would have been cool on the back, but you can still sorta see it 🙂
