Quilt ADD in therapy

Colorado, United States
Other than my family, the passion of my life is quilting. An eclectic, I love a wide variety of styles and techniques encompassing both machine and hand work. I am a longarm quilter who can work for you. I enjoy any style, from pantographs to all-over to full custom, ranging from traditional to modern. I love bringing vintage tops to life and am willing to work with a challenging quilt top. Instagram: lyncc_quilts

BOMs Away - Flimsy Alert! Holiday Tidings



Welcome to the Link-Up for BOMs Away Mondays!

We'd love to see the BOM you're working on lately.
This week's link-up is at the bottom of the post.


Hey!  I just couldn't stand to not get this BOM finished this month, so I broke down my quilting machine to work for piecing again (plus, my spring-action quilting foot died after 4 years of use, so I can't work on my wedding ring quilting).  And Voila!

Holiday Tidings


78" x 90"
 
A nice queen size top that will be quilted who-knows-when, but at least this BOM set that's been idle since Feb 2000 is now all sewn up.  :D 

That makes me happy. And since I haven't been able to do so in forever, I'll be linking this up at Sarah's "Whoop! Whoop!" Party on Friday. And next month's 4th Sunday will bring a brand new BOM set into the work mix.  More happiness!

Have you done any work on your BOM(s) lately?

  1. Yay!! It always feels good to get a long standing WIP put together into a quilt top. It's beautiful, too! I have a Christmas Quilt top that needs some attention as well.

  5. This is beautiful! Did you say this was from back in 2000? I think one of my UFO's is from the late 90's..... I'll have to dig it out and finish it one of these days!

  12. Glad you could do some machine sewing again, but sorry to hear about the broken quilting foot. Guess you've been giving that spring a lot of hopping action, huh? No BOMs around here. Busy getting a quilt made for a nephew's May 3 wedding. Also working on a selvage skirt for myself, to wear when I go to Paducah for the AQS show.
