January finishes

I know, I know, there are still a couple of days left in January! But these are my major finishes for the month and I wanted to share them with you. You've already seen my scrappy trip along quilt, which I never planned on making at all! I'm so glad I did....
 I made a sweet mini quilt with some embroidered blocks which I can't really show you because it's a surprise for a friend. But here's a little sneak peak.....
And just today I finished up my line dance quilt. I used a charm pack of Mod Century, such an awesome, cheerful fabric line, and some of the "read solid" coordinates from the same line. Unfortunately it's a really rainy, stormy day so I can't take decent outdoor pictures for you but here it is...
 And my scrappy back (which I honestly love as much as the front!)...
I'm so proud of myself for quilting all of these on my own. I'm getting better at the straight line quilting. I think I'm off to a pretty good start for 2013!

Have you entered my giveaway yet? There are still a few more hours left.... you can find it in the next post down (for some strange reason blogger won't let me create a link today! Silly blogger.) Winner will be announced tomorrow morning... see you then!

You've certainly had a productive month - even in the midst of coordinating a very well run ladies' retreat! :>)

I love all of your finishes! I feel like I hardly finished anything this month :( I guess I still have today and tomorrow. Well, I did finish testing a bag pattern, but I can't share it yet since the pattern hasn't been released. I'm home sick today, but not feeling so poorly that I can't do anything...so maybe I'll get some sewing done :-/

You're on a roll! I'm working on getting another finish done. It's only been in the works for a YEAR! :)
