Weekend Overview

I thought I would catch up on quilty stuff for the weekend. I made 3 more receiving blankets, and 31 more burp bibs for a total of 56. I know this seems like lots, but lots of people are pregnant. I finally got up the nerve to quilt the magic vine top I made last year. I've been staring at it forever and feeling chicken, and so yesterday I bit the bullet. I used stencils for the wreaths in the setting blocks, and free handed the feathers in the border. I just went around each of the flowers in the flower blocks. Of course I poked myself with a pin and bled on the white border, so it has been laundered already. I have the hardest time getting good pics of quilting, any suggestions?



Here is the finished top from Bonnie's quiltville mystery quilt, Carolina Byways.
