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.
