10 finished quilts for Sterling School

Michael left at 9 AM to do a bazillion errands (chiro & Triple A, Aldi’s, library, insurance office, etc) on Friday morning (12/18), while I headed downstairs to play all day in my studio.  I forgot to tell you that I took the THREE DUDES QUILT to quilting yesterday for show and tell, and to turn in for Sterling School.  That is my 10^th single bed sized quilt for this year to Sterling….I am happy, happy, happy!!  ok...here it is...a reprise of the year in Sterling School quilts:

Of course, this is the quilt I used to hide MIchael's Christmas quilt under last year:

I loved this pattern and want to do it again!

the first jelly roll I ever bought

The next 2 quilt tops were originally made to go in our front bedroom....but how could I keep them when no one really sleeps in the front bedroom any more....and there are kids out there who have never had a bed to sleep in?

Then I made 2 blooming 9-patch rainbow quilts...and I'm sure I'll do more because I just loved these:

I was so intrigued by this illusions pattern I just had to do it....but in rainbow colors of course:

I had previously made 2 tops for MIchael and me to put over the backs of our living room chairs, but then I made other quilts we liked better, so I cannabalized them to make just one quilt that was big enough for a Sterling School quilt:

And then of course, I finally finished the original quilt I started for Michael in September of 2014.   Since I had started all over again and made a second one that he got for Christmas, this first one went to Sterling:

 And finally, the THREE DUDES quilt that I made using up fabric I bought with Mary Jo in Paducah when we went...oh so many years ago:

I spent the afternoon working on the binding of the second dino quilt, and just after dinner I got a customer quilt loaded up and the program set to start quilting it Saturday.  Michael and I got TOY STORY 1 & 2 from the library, and we settled in to watch the first one and I got the label stitched down to totally finish the dino quilt…pictures tomorrow.
