quilt top finished!

I finished the quilt top!  The pattern is "Cheers me up" by Geoff's Mom patterns. I brought it to our Quilt guild meeting last night.  Since it's a bit cold here now we were only six ladies at the meeting, but we had a lovely evening!  The temperature has been -31 C for quite a while now (-24 F), so staying inside keeping the fire going in the fireplace is a priority.... At least I am getting some sewing done :-)

I started sewing scrappy trip around the world blocks at the meeting last night- maybe I'll make some more this weekend- I can see these are a bit addictive.... You can find the tutorial here on Bonnie's Quiltville page.
Hope your weekend is great- I'll be at home sewing blocks :-)
Thanks for stopping by!

  5. Hei Anne Heidi
    Så utrolig flink du er - men det er jo gjerne slik at en får masse energi av å drive på med det en liker.
    Klem og god helg til deg (fortsatt kaldt, går jeg ut fra :)

    1. Takk Kari :-) Ja det er sant at man får energi av å drive med det man liker! Fortsatt kaldt her, men bare -26 nå. Svein og Sigve har dratt til Hamar på skirenn i dag, litt mildere der, men Ola ligger med feber så det ble ikke noe renn på ham.
      God helg til dere også! Klem.

  12. You have -31 and we have +35 what a contrast! I love the quilt top, the purple border is perfect, liking those colours together....enjoy snuggling in front of the fire with a quilt and some stitching...
