Last year I found a pattern for a quilt called Cotton Daisies by Laugh Yourself Into Stitches. I decided that I would make the throw size 45" by 63" to use on my hammock in my backyard.
I included it as part of my AuSable Quilt Guild UFO list 2022/23. It was my numbered 5 which was picked for June. During the month of June I did piece it together which was all that was required to be considered complete, but with the weather keeping me outside it was piled up with a couple other quilts to get quilted. Today it is not an UFO anymore.
Part of the appeal of this quilt was the quilting design that was on the pattern photo. So I quilted it similar to that photo. I'm very pleased with the finished quilt. Although it won't be on my hammock until next summer today was a nice sunny day for a photo.
With this quilt I also made some throw pillows with fabric with bees and beehives print. I'm envisioning a beautiful sunny day reading a book/magazine on my hammock with my new creations. Could possibly a great little nap.
As much as I love summer, these cooler temps are just great for tackling projects I love to do. I loaded another quilt on my frame this afternoon. Tomorrows mission is to quilt it. Hope to see you soon with another completed project.
