Downton Abbey quilting update

On the last 12 large blocks of this quilt. I am loving this quilt design and using black to quilt it. Nice pattern and not getting tired of it. Maybe will finish these blocks end of this week. Trying to quilt every evening. I so would like to finish the main quilting by the end of the year. I am skipping over the smaller solid dividing borders within the quilt, as I can quilt them later. So exciting to add folded prairie points to this quilt. I think it will pull it together in the end. May enter in a fair.

Here is a close up...

Here is a lot link to blog...

Nursing scrubs..a quilt?

I retired from nursing in January. We had a garage scale and attempted to sell my scrubs...but no buyers. I spent a few days cutting them up for fabric in future quilt projects. I ran across the "no name block and decided they would be perfect. Nice remembrance of my nursing in home health. Here is the result.

I found a fabric that I might use in the Allietarecherith mystery. Scrubs in Cherith's quilt....perfect.

I also finished another row on the Downton Abbey quilt. Now to stitch around the next border and then to the final 8 larger blocks and final border. Making progress.
