Quilt I shipped off yesterday....

Here is a picture of the quilt I shipped off yesterday:
Friendship Rings quilt

This quilt was pieced for Fons and Porter Easy Quilting Scrap issue for this September. I'm so excited!!! I have made 4 of these quilts now, so I have the pattern in my head at all times. The pattern will be pulled from the local quilt shop now that it is officially going to be in a magazine.  The one in the quilt shop is this one:
this is before I pieced the blocks together into rows and before borders were put on....oops...need to take an updated picture!! lol
I've also made this quilt in this color wave:
I think I need to take some finished pictures of these quilts!! This one is before I quilted it....lol what a mess I am!
Today I am working on a friend's quilt. She is giving this as a mother's day present...and it is not a freebie, she pays me for the work.  I also need to work on the pattern for Double Dutch, Dahlia Blooms, Sweet Gum Ball (pinburr variation) and my Caribbean Salsa (cool layout of the Northwind)....
Lots to do today and go to the dentist! Have a wonderful day everyone....
