#4 on my Q4 Finish Along goals

I followed the wavy lines on the backing fabric as my quilting design.

Lehenga Blouse

I somehow managed to sew my daughter's lehenga blouse which is # 8 on my Q4 FinishAlong goals. This is a silk material so needed to be lined as well. This is my first time sewing a lined blouse.

Quilt 2 for Ronald McDonald House

The X and O quilt on my Q4 FinishAlong Goals # 5 is finally completed. I wanted it to be a boy quilt, so I replaced the purple squares with blue and yellow from my stash. I only realized while sewing the blocks that there are so many variations in arranging them. For this quilt I arranged all x's and o's in separate rows. I sure would like to experiment with other arrangements. So I will be doing more x and o quilts in the future.

Pieced backing for the charity quilt

I am doing spiral quilting on this quilt. This is my first time doing spiral quilting with walking foot. Well I started with my all purpose foot and switched it to walking foot. I hope it turns out good. I'll be posting the finished quilt in the next day or two.

Wave Runner

Although it's been a while since I posted anything, I have been sewing a little regularly. I did accomplish sewing and quilting the Wave Runner #9 on my Finish Along Q3 goals. In total I have only completed 4 from the list of 11. Probably that's way too ambitious for someone with a baby at hand. I did sew a few things that was not on the list. So it wasn't a total failure.
Anyway the wave runner pattern is from the Easy Quilts magazine Winter edition of 2013. It was pretty easy to sew but a little weird to quilt because of its shape. It is 70" long.

Did some straight line quilting on purple, stippling on tan and followed the design on green.
