finish it up Friday, week 21

Welcome to finish it up Friday!

On a whim yesterday, and because I desperately needed a finish, I quilted my one log cabin block and turned it into a throw pillow. I really like it!

It would have been cute as a baby quilt, but since I gave my strings away to a friend, it made sense to stop and turn it into a pillow cover. 

I finished it with an envelope backing. So easy! I used this great (and old) Amy Butler print that I had been hoarding for years. It felt good to finally use it!

I'm happy to report that all the pillows on my couch are covered. I'm loving the patchy goodness!

And dreaming of making more....of course!

  

How about you? Do you have a finish to share today? If so, please link up to a specific blog post so we can cheer you on!

Happy Friday to you!

pebbles

so, i decided to pebble quilt the rolling stone quilt. 

it's going to take awhile.

and it's going to take a lot of thread.

i really like how the pebbles can be any size and how they fit easily into small spaces.

besides....pebbles...rolling stones....it just makes sense. :)

the quilting really shows up on the back.

so i'm hoping i don't run into any tension issues.

i think these colors are so good together!

i'm guessing i'm going to love the back more than the front.

but it wouldn't be the first time that happened.

all fabrics in this quilt are from the mod basics collection by birch fabrics.
