First UFO finish of 2012!!!

Can I get a Whoop,Whoop!!
I finished this and posted photos to the After Christmas Sew
Along with seconds to spare (literally)!

You can find the post from last year here about when the
quilt top was finished.

I started quilting it on Wednesday evening after dinner,
finished last night around a quarter after ten.
This evening between phone calls and other interruptions
I was able to finish and get photos posted by the ten o clock
deadline!

This is also one of the projects on my Winter Stitching List,
that Sarah over at FairyFace Designs is hosting!
One down a bunch to go.

Linking up to the following...

I'm back (finally!)

Did you guys/gals miss me?
Sorry for not getting a post up sooner,this was a busy week.
What with Gil home until yesterday,I just had other priorities
this week.

There were a couple of nights when Gil and Mr. P were playing
video games,so I took advantage of that and snuck off to get
in a little sewing time!

The above photo is my week # 2 project for the After Christmas
Sew Along over at Sew Much 2 Luv 

Here is a photo of my inspiration for this project.
Back in October/November I had purchased 2 different Fast
& Furious books.
This project is called "Lucky Charms",because you use charm
squares to make it.

The center inside of the white is the original pattern.  I decided
that it was to small and needed something more.  My first idea
was just to add the  prairie  points,but that made it way to busy,
so I added the white border to break it up a little.

The quilting is just straight lines with a zig zag around the outer
edge,which I think ties in with the prairie points.

Vacation was Great and Short too!  Well not really short,but it
felt like it ;)
Will post some more vacation photos soon :)
