friday finish!

Well, technically, I finished it yesterday...but I didn't take pics of it until today.

I still have to pack it up (with other goodies) and send it off to it's new owner.

I'm almost done with this quilt top. (I had to get border fabric today.)

It is intended for the Pirate's family. But...it is awfully bright. I like it. I think it's summery and fun, but I'm not sure about whether or not Pirate's family will like it.


I started a quilt that may or may not be for my mom for Christmas.

Speaking of mailing (I did at the beginning of the post, at least)...I hit the post office today.

I sent off charm squares for the Rainbow Swap, Round 2.

And *drumroll* I sent off packages to New Bee on the Block folks!
I'm hoping they'll get to the folks who are abroad before my birthday (mid August).

I won't post the tutorial link for the folks until next week.

Also, I need to issue some major thank you's.
I won a Kona bundle from Canton Village Quiltworks on Ryan Walsh's I'm Just A Guy Who Quilts contest.
It's luscious.

And I won coffee and a french press over at duodishes:

Kraken likes coffee almost as much as I do!
