Rolling Rainbow RSC 2021 Quilt #287 Size:  82" x 98" Started 1/25/21 - Finished 5/25/22 This is my Rolling Rainbow  quilt, which I started in January 2021 as part of the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  I  finished the top in August 2021 and promptly added it to my "to be quilted" pile. Once I decided to gift it to my niece Lisa for her birthday this year, it was time to quilt and bind it. It is so colorful and cheerful that I can't help but be happy with it.  My quilt inspectors -- OJ and Pepper -- also give it their final seal of approval!   I quilted it on my Moxie with an E2E pantograph design of Baptist Fans, my first time using this design.  It's not perfect, but I really like the look. I used a queen-sized Warm & Natural batting. The backing is a fun print that is perfect for my niece.  And, of course, a label for the finale. Rolling Rainbow is a free pattern from Robert Kaufman, and I used all KONA solids for this quilt. UPDATE : ...

I've been busy finishing some quilt tops.  I should probably spend more time quilting the tops that are accumulating instead of making more LOL!   This is my first quilt top for the  2022 Stash Buster Challenge by Border Creek Station using the Jericho Walls block.  The challenge is to make 52 blocks (1 block a week) by the end of the year to be entered into a drawing. I started this top a couple weeks ago with the intention of just making the18 blocks to catch up.  A week later, I ended up with 32 blocks and this top.  It is a fast and easy block to make and so much fun!  I still need another 20 blocks if I want to qualify for the drawing. This top was made from leftover Stack 'n' Whack blocks I made in 2004.  I made two wall hangings with this same fabric to give as gifts.  The black and red triangles were also leftover with the blocks.  Three of the 5 blocks don't match but I'm keeping this one so that's okay.  I also found...
