Sugar Bowl Quilt.. my rendition.. Friday Finishes..

I love Gwen Morston's quilts, this is from her book and its called Sugar Bowl. Mine is a little wonky but I love it. It was a little difficult for my novice skills but lucky for me I don't know any quilt police.  I added a wider border than the one in the book because I like it to be a little bigger. I just finished the top and have not got to the batting or backing yet. I started it this afternoon and finished about 4:30. It went faster than I thought it would. There are 21 quilts in the book, I am going to try and make them all. Where I will put them the good Lord only knows but I think it will be great piecing practice.

Here is a little closer view, like I said "it ain't perfect" but its mine and I guess I have to look at it. At least the hubbs didn't think it was a hot pad this time! lol

This is the one from the book, I am not a pink gal but I soooooo thought it was pretty and I love the name of this quilt.
Here is the book, just love this book!
 Blessings Yall! Gwen

  7. Amazing blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers? I'm hoping to start my own website soon but I'm
    a little lost on everything. Would you recommend starting with
    a free platform like Wordpress or go for a paid option?
    There are so many choices out there that I'm completely overwhelmed .. Any tips? Many thanks!
