A Finish

Woo hoo a finish





Lots of you know I have been making these Klosjes for coming up for ------ years. Not even going to go their with that.
It's been a long time and have sewn these  little blocks through highs and lows of emotions.
I used  Cindy Blackberq's http://cindyblackberg.com/shop/template-stamps/spool/.
Cindy gave me these when I stopped of in Townsend for the night when I was on my way to Paducah. We both had tight schedules so it was a  quick coffee and I was on my way again.

It's with mixed emotion I have now completed this quilt top and am worried I am going to get withdrawal symptoms - Not to worry she gave me the Apple Core stamp too so I can carry on stamping and stitching to my hearts desire.

I have stamped, cut and pieced 1820 pieces of fabric and that gives me a total of 364  three inch blocks.

But of course it's not a quilt until it's quilted so will promptly book this one in and I will really will  have a finish.  Woo Hoo .
