May OMG - done!

I finished my pillow cover:

The back is a former UFO:

Now I need to find a pillow to stuff inside.  :P

progress on May OMG

Pieced.  Ironed.  Batting roughly cut and spray-basted.

Planning to quilt it this weekend and trim to 15" square.

May OMG - Rainbow Road pillow

I am taking another class with Rachel of Stitched in Color - Curves.  One of our projects is an improv rainbow road.   Instead of a table runner, I am going to make a 15" ish square pillow.

I bought some yummy solids from Gotham Quilts and after a moment of hesitation, chopped the yardage into a wide strip. 

Then I sliced it into smaller chunks:

I was distracted by the selvage - can I make an itty-bitty garland out of them?

I am going back to play now.  :)   Thanks to our OMG host, Patty of Elm Street Quilts.

BBQAL - purple duvet

I made a duvet cover.  This is the huge-est thing I have ever made!

One only pic because my neighbor wanted to know what I was doing...  :P

See April OMG - done for a close-up ish photo.  Taking photos is not one of my talents.

Reflecting on the process, I wish that I had stuck with my original idea of multi-colored squares.  This is not super exciting/appealing to my sense of color/design, but I did get some practice with appliqueing the squares on, and with long seams, so it was overall a good experience.  I like the back of it, with the big swath of flowers.  I've got more of that print and I would like to make a Diabolical Jane someday!  :)
