Lots of Stitching Going On

There has been a lot of stitching and completed projects since I last posted in March, but (obviously) not a lot of blogging.  

I've continued to complete UFO projects.  Many of them will be donated to the Comfort Quilt coordinator or my guild who will donate them to local charitable organizations.  These are 5 of the quilts done that will be donated.  All except for the black/tribal print quilt came from my stash.  The most colorful ones were started as a leader/ender project I originally intended to be a full or queen sized quilt.  The pattern isn't as pronounced as I wanted, so I made it into sizes that are in demand for comfort quilts.  (Most of the organizations want crib and twin sized quilts.)

As I was sewing the binding on this last quilt, I noticed a small snip on the backing.  So now there is a small, mysterious purple dot on the back that covers the tear.  I like it and may just put a random circle on other quilts just because.

I put together the last of the tree blocks into a table runner that will probably turn into a gift this winter.

The guild did a few swaps this spring.  This one was for zipper pouches and these were my contributions.

Bright Baby revisited is quilted!  I used the solid grey areas as practice for free motion quilting.  Each grey diamond (excluding the edge diamonds) is quilted with a different fill pattern.  It was fun and a good lesson on what works and what does not.  I'll probably keep this one as a sample.

And a pair of socks from yarn I received as a Christmas gift.
