TWO PROJECTS DONE AND ON TO SOMETHING NEW AND FUN

I spent this entire past week finishing both the Marco Polo and the Butterfly quilt tops. They are bagged up and on Wednesday will be going to my charity group for quilting and binding.  A relief for sure.  Now I can get back to Morning Flight and see what other unfinished project lies hidden in my storage drawers.  I have several collage projects that would be so much fun to start.  

Marco Polo quilt top is done.  The lattice made things so easy to join the blocks.  I am pleased at last with the finish on it.  I did select a yellow print for the binding.  It goes to my charity group for quilting and binding on Wednesday.  

The Butterfly quit is also finished and has joined Marco Polo going to the charity group for finishing.  

I have a bin full of William Morris theme fabric and three pattern books.  I think they are calling me for attention.  Time to do something different.

    Marco Polo reminds me of a stained glass window, it's beautiful. Love the butterfly quilt as well. Hopefully you can enjoy applique work, which I know you enjoy, this week 😉

    I like both of those quilts. Both seem like a good way to use up leftover fabric. Nice job.

    Both quilts are great! Do you have a pattern that you could share for the butterfly quilt? The Table Scraps this month is butterflies! :)

    Both are beautiful donation quilts, I love the look of the blue sashings on Marco Polo, and the butterflies are great for showing large floral prints. Thank you for sharing and linking up these finished tops!

    I love both of your donation quilts, Donnalee - especially the butterfly. I think the yellow binding will be great on the Marco Polo quilt! Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings! Have a great week!
