Making Some Progress
I completed another quilt top!!!! For the past year, I've thought that I would like to do the Sassy Sixteen pattern by Divine Inspirations for my niece who turned sixteen last December. I had new fabric Moda's Maypole by April Cornell that would match her bedroom. Did I begin the quilt last Winter? Of course not. Yesterday and today, I pushed with my sewing to get the top complete. I pinned the rows while watching football games with my husband (we are on football overload this weekend). The top is completed and the backing is stitched. I called my favorite long-arm quilter, P.J. and thankfully she will have it quilted for me to get to my niece for Christmas/her birthday. The Sassy Sixteen pattern takes 16 fat quarters which is neat because M.K. is 16. But with the binding, I actually used 17 fabrics. Not to worry! She will turn 17 on December 30th.

Hi there! I am so jealous you are getting things done!! Good for you. I have been doing some hand work when I am listening to a book on tape, but not much. I know I will get back into it. I saw that Pat had a place....what day are you going to do? See you soon. kristie
you're feeling better! And I think the quilt you pieced is prettier than the one on the pattern. Nice job! Lucky niece. Maybe I can be adopted.......
What a great cheery quilt! Love it! How can you part with it????
