I'm happy to say the elk quilt for the hunting club is quilted. Today I will trim it and sew on the binding. I will be happy to mark this project off my list for another year. This quilt measures about 72 x 94. Whoever wins it will be quite cozy bundled up with the flannel backing. I did a medium meander for the quilting. I think Quilt Inspector Polly approves.

I didn't do very well with my goal list from
last week. I now need to make 2
Swoon Della Wallets. I decided to have the gals pick their own fabrics. Once you've made one, they go really fast. I love using mine. I've bought several of the Swoon patterns and have been real happy with the ones I have made.
I did work on a couple Pineapple Crazy Blocks but I put them away again. I have the next quilt ready to pin baste and I hope I have enough pins to baste another one while I have the tables set up. I think it takes longer for me to set up the tables and get started than it does to pin the quilt.
I'm quite excited about the next 2 quilts. I can't wait to start quilting them. I like that I already know how I want to quilt each of them.
My goals for this week are short and sweet.
- Finish the elk quilt
- Sew 2 Della Wallets
- Pin baste 2 quilts

It does feel great to get a big project checked off of your list. Your Elk quilt design is so interesting! It looks like a big puzzle. Great quilt.
Congratulations on a finish! The quilt looks wonderful.
The Hunters are very Lucky that you volunteer your creativity and make a quilt to Raffle off each year. Glad you got it done!
The elk quilt will be a big hit with the hunters' group. Doesn't it feel good to have it nearly finished?!
