Almost done

I finished the quilting on the Ice Cream Quilt this afternoon and it's unloaded and trimmed. Binding will have to wait until I get back from VA on the 12th. I LOVE this quilt- thanks to JudyL for providing the inspiration/pattern with her July QFAH Project! Click any of the photos for a larger view (yes, I'm still manually fixing the code on each photo so it WILL enlarge).



Here's my report for Stashbusting Sunday.
  • All the fabric from the Ice Cream quilt is from stash, including the flannel backing.
  • All the fabric in my Holiday House finished this week is from stash.
  • I started a new quilt with a Jelly Roll (a gift that's been in stash for 6 months).
  • NO fabric purchases this week.

While I'm making lists.....my current to do list looks like this

  • Finish Holiday House
  • Load and quilt the Ice Cream House
  • Make blocks for Boxed Squares
  • Make 2 backings for UFO's that will become HeartStrings quilts
  • Bind 3 HeartStrings quilts

Wow Mary! I just love it! It really does look like my favourite icecream flavours. I'm going to add this quilt to my list of ones to make. Great effort with your stashbusting!

This is just a beautiful quilt. I love your color choices. This one would be hard to give away. I hope you are going to keep it.

This is a gorgeous quilt. It looks like a good cuddle quilt.

Oh Mary - this is the most luscious quilt! Absolutely good enough to eat. Cherry chocolate chip ice cream - I bet that's where you got the name. Could be chocolate covered cherries also. Or Neopolitan ice cream. I really have to make one from this pattern!
