This is Block #16 of Beyond the Cherry Tree. There are 120 grapes in this block. I'm using pennies, dimes, and nickels for templates to make grapes. Since my "grapes" are bigger than the pattern I doubt I'll need 120! There is an entire blog devoted to quilters who participated in this project--Beyond the Cherry Tree. Mimi's quilt is finished and is entered at Lancaster and Paducah. Some are being quilted, some are completed tops--and some like mine are still "works in progress". If you have a quilt you've always wanted to make but wondered if you "had it in you" DON'T WAIT!! Start!! Get your bucket list out and pick one. Or two. Or ten!!
I had a finish this week. You know--a F-I-N-I-S-H. Its the Blue Urban Cabin.
Twin size--64x85". Its a great pattern, I've made two and Henrietta made one.
The weather is going to be nice this weekend, maybe Henrietta and I will road trip. And more quilting--hopefully Swoon will be finished. What do you have planned?

oh do i know about those February goals! I listed 6 goals to start with, and only managed to get one quilt to the quilter's (still waiting for it to come back!) and i'm almost done with the electric Slide quilt and pillowcases. right now it looks like I'll be the perverbial "day late and a dollar short" in getting them done on time, but i started with a month that was already a few days short, so i don't feel too bad.
Ooh... Road trip! Have fun!
That reminds me... After Memorial Day, I'm hopefully headed to your neck of the woods!
The Urban Cabin really turned out pretty with the blues. That seems to be my "go to" color scheme lately. But I have a UFO Urban Cabin started in neutrals. It will eventually move back up to the top of my UFO list.
I love the look of the Urban Cabin. Nice finish!
Congratulation on your finish. Looks great.
I missed all the blocks on the Beyond the Cherry Trees, but I do love it. Someday, I plan to buy them. I'm collecting the Sally Post ones, though, and will do that when I tire of crazy quilting projects for a yearly thing. About 2015, according to current plans. =)
Lori, Your urban quilt looks great! Nice finish. Jane
