It was my goal this year to have four UFO's completed. I did finally stitch down a binding on a really, really, very, very old project...a Robyn Pandolph kit project from the 90's ( Fig.1). I used the then very popular but grey, valueless colors available (I used to call them no-color, color). I don't remember when I finished the quilt top. Diane Anderson of Quilter's Cabin did a wonderful job machine quilting it several years ago and I am now happy to add it to my limited collection of large quilts.
About 4 years ago, I bought several different striped fabrics, one in two color ways which went into Flower POWER (see post this blog) finished last year. The second is another under-the-sea quilt. View From the Bowl II (Fig. 2), was created using silk organza overlay and gesso on cotton...my own design. I used the actual striped fabric "as is" in the border at the bottom. It hangs above the tub in the guest bathroom (Fig. 3). I think when I finish the third in this striped-fabric series I will have it out of my system...hope so anyway!
