Country Roads Quilt Top



This is a quilt top that I put together from a kit with panel of houses and barns. The applique was done on the machine and had to be done as I put the rows and borders together since it overlapped the borders. It adds a "little something" to the quilt. The quilt is called "Country Roads" and is from Coach House Designs.


It's a dreary day outside---rain showers (glad for the rain because we really need it), so I'm spending the afternoon looking through pattern books that I haven't looked at for awhile trying to find somethng new to do. Going to a quilt retreat soon and can't decide just what to take! Of course, I will do several Yellow Brick Roads tops for Project Linus. Then I will probably finish embroidery on several flower blocks left and finish the Magnolia quilt by sewing the blocks together. And there is always something to crochet. I'm sure I can find lots to ways to keep busy!!!


Looking forward to this trip a lot----I'll be hobbling around on my cane, because my knee is acting up and the shot the doctor gave to help it hindered rather than helped and I have had trouble ever since he administered it. Have to take it slow! Learning to slow down-------------not an easy thing to do!!!!


Let quilting help you make someone smile!
