Can this be true? Have I finally found the time to not only complete a few quilts but also take pictures of them??? It is true - here's proof #1 - Hourglass Quilt completed :)
The fabrics are a collection of a few of my favorites from over the last few months. I wanted to keep the colors different but the feel to be a little on the modern side to match the pattern.
For the border I used a very small (and cute) hexagon print from the Quilt Blocks collection. I think the clean lines of it goes very well of the quilt top.
I wanted to keep the quilting clean and modern as well so I went with a straight stitch around every seam of the quilt. It's enough to give it nice cozy quilt feel but doesn't compromise the quilt top design.
I absolutely love making this quilt. The hourglass pattern is great and very fun to work with. I'm sure I'll be making more quilts that are inspired by this timeless pattern :).

Nice; I love your fabric choices!
I love the color and pattern!
I'm a lover of quilts. Your pattern is a charmer. It also resembles spools of threads. Love it!

Beautiful! Love the fabric combos.
Love this -- please tell me it is not paper pieced nor involves templates. I just want to sew! And use scraps.
Thanks, Jan
It's LOVELY! :)
Visiting from Simple As That and I must say that is so LOVELY! I've always been a mite jealous of those folks who can quilt and sew! Just beautifully done. :)

Very, Very nice. Inspiration for me to get back to quilting and post my quilts. going on! Love your colors and will be back to see more of your quilting!
I love this quilt. It's really beautiful. I love how you used white to show off the pattern fabrics.
Oh I like it. I'm so impressed when ladies actually finish a quilt. So many projects stay in the project mode. I've been working on dresses lately. Next project is to help my daughters to learn to sew skirts.
