Acadia


 
This quilt has been sitting for a couple years, half done.
 
 
I am not sure why I was putting off working on it, I love the material in this line, Acadia by Moda,  and I added several others from my stash, mainly some Joel Dewberry prints.

 
The back was a great deal I found at Joann's and I love how it coordinates.
 
This is the 3rd of 5 quilts that I have completed and sitting on a chair waiting for me to sandwich, quilt and complete.  
 
 
I got a tad distracted and started cutting on my horded stash of Bonnie and Camille yesterday before moving on to the next quilt in the waiting pile. 
 
I am trying to make a deal with myself that I can finish cutting, but must then clear the table and sandwich/quilt one from the pile before I start sewing something new.

#economyblock

 
It rained this weekend, a perfect time to settle in and get a quilt done!  This had been sitting on my table for many weeks, half quilted, waiting for me to complete.  Happy it is done!

 
This may be my favorite block....

 
Or maybe this one....

 
It finished out 60x70, made from the original Lush line and Lush Uptown as well with solids.
 
Backing is the paint by numbers from the original Lush line.
 
I now only have 3 quilts paired with backings sitting on the chair next to my table waiting to be quilted!
