Mint Tulips

We had storms off and on Friday and Saturday, so I worked inside on quilts. I finished my pink tulip quilt yesterday. I planned to just finish the machine applique, and before I knew it, the borders were attached, and I was quilting. It is so light and airy. I just love this quilt. It is a Pat Sloan pattern in the book, The Best of Pat Sloan Applique Patterns. Pat's website is www.quiltershome.com

I also pieced two backs yesterday. One for Bloomin Rose which I will quilt next, and the other back for Windblown Posies.

Windblown Posies

I just finished putting on the borders of Windblown Posies. This is a free pattern by Pat Sloan on the P&B fabric website. Now I must search for the perfect back in my stash. I have three days to quilt it, or it goes on the LIST of quilts to be quilted. Ugh!

I have that list down to 20, and I do not want it growing again.

Blooms Inside and Out

The azaleas are almost finished blooming , and the roses are starting to bloom. Inside I am appliquing three quilts with flowers. One has orange and purple blooms, another many pink tulips. These are machine appliqued. I am hand appliqueing four dogwood blocks.

I hope to plant a flat or two of purple petunias this week, and begin my mulching.
