I want to thank all of you who have sent personal e-mails to see it I was buried in snow. OH.MY.GOSH. Buffalo NY , you are in my thoughts and prayers. Some of our are emergency/rescue people and equipment have gone out to assist with clean up and search. We had a dusting that disappeared the next day. But it is COLD! So it is a good week to get those borders on.
This is the row quilt with Cindy at Quilt Doodle Designs. There needs to be a lot of embellishing and quilting on this one, but truth be told - I don't think I am going to get to that this year. I am happy to just get this to a flimsy stage and I really enjoyed participating in this quilt along.
And I got the border on the Charming Star quilt - participating with TERRY in a sew along using this pattern from Moda Bake Shop. I think there are 4 or 5 different charm lines in this - just needed to use them up and they blended together so nicely. The border fabric I know is a Moda, but the selvedge had been trimmed, so can't give you the name. A nice dark charcoal with little color discs that mimic the earthy colors of the charms. This one will have to wait on quilting too - there are 3 ahead of it - maybe a January finish.
Hope everyone is surviving the cold, stay inside and sew!
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

We only got about 6-7 inches of snow here, but that was more than enough. The cold can go away any time now! Love your charming stars top...it's beautiful! :0)
40C forecast for us tomorrow - that's over 100F. Bit hard to visualise what you folks are going through when it is that hot.
Lovely stars. I have admired them every time you showcased them Sharon.
Your row by row turned out darling! I printed off the patterns and that's as far as I got. Stay safe and snug!
Both quilts turned out beautifully! I love the rich browns you used in Charming Stars.
What beautiful quilt tops! You always get so much accomplished. I would love to try the star quilt...I have lots of charm packs and that looks like a great way to use them! Thanks for the link, and stay warm!
Loe the row quilt!! Glad you didn't get dumped on with snow.
How did you dodge that one? I've come to think of your town as a weather magnet, drink your cocoa and stay warm.
Two great top!!! Can't decide which I like best because that row quilt is so cute. Glad to hear you dodged the snow blast.
The top is a beauty, glad to hear you are well :)
What great finishes. Your always welcome to our world of needs to be quilted quilts! LOL!!
I wish I had seen this BOM....looks like is was a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing as I did go over and check out the 2015 BOM at Quilt Doodle Designs. Yours came out great!!!!
Haven't had the news on at our house and I just heard about the huge snow storm. So glad it didn't hit you. Love your two quilts you showed today. The Charming stars works so well against those darks.
Great job on both quilts! I missed out on the rows, but I do have a charming Stars put together and waiting to be quilted. Where in NY are you located?
I'm glad you aren't snowed in, that's no fun for anyone. Love the two top! I started gathering them for 3 months, then I got distracted and never started the quilt :*(
Glad to know the snow didn't inundate you. I saw the pictures of Buffalo. OMG!
I LOVE your winter theme row quilt. I'm a sucker for row quilts and quilt alongside.
So glad the heavy snows missed you. Our NC snow was in the higher elevations. But it was very cold here.
Stay warm.
I LOVE your winter quilt. It looks fabulous! The stars are terrific too. The colors in that make it wonderful.

Those are two amazing quilts! Love the row sampler!
We are digging out here today but not as bad as in Buffalo!
No snow here yet, though I saw it in the forecast! Stay warm and quilt on!
Sharon, your row quilt from Quilt Doodle is wonderful!
Love how your Quilt Doodle quilt turned out. I only got as far as the snowmen. It will make a nice 2015 finish. I'm also liking how your Charmed star quilt is coming along.
Cute quilts. Stay warm!
Both quilts are lovely, Sharon. I saw all the snow over there on the tv. I just can't imagine what it must be like to have so much snow and be buried in your house!
I love both of your quilts and looking at the star quilt up close makes it even more fun!! Those different collections do go very well together!! Glad to hear the storm just snuggled by you and not on top of you!! We worry about you, Sharon!! :-))
You finished the QDD quilt; it looks great. I like the house being in a plain background. For some reason it makes it stand out. I have to get to on finishing mine. Charming Star is another neat finish.
I concur with Dasha -- very hard to think of snow when all I can think of is heat!
Love your row by row quilt. The borders really set it off.
Very pretty quilts. Glad to hear you are not buried in snow. Extremely cold here in Ohio. Keep warm.
glad you are not snowed in. cold here too but fingers crossed had snow and it melted. not ready. your quilts are beautiful. love the row quilt. I wish I had followed along on that one.
Your row quilt with Quilt Doodles turned out wonderful! You've inspired me to get going on mine!
Love the quilts, especially the row by row. I'll have to go check out her 2015. So glad that storm missed you. I'm praying for those folks in Buffalo and the surrounding area.
I see ice skates....are you going to need them. Great projects as always.
Love both quilts! :)
What is going on in Buffalo is epic / horrible ...crazy!
Glad you didn't get the worst of the snow -- Buffalo got slammed! Your Charming Star is quite charming indeed!!! :)
I really love your Quilt Doodles Quilt! It is perfect. The colors really make it pop out! And your Charming Star is gorgeous...love those fall colors...isn't it great to mix and match the charm packs!
They both look great and while we didn't get the snow that Buffalo did last week, we sure got enough of it yesterday. Stay warm and stay safe.
As soon as I heard about all the snow in Buffalo, I googled how far away you were, so, I figured you were safe. Hey, as I was going thru some fabrics the other day (I'm trying to organize a bit) I came across some fabric that says Schohsrie on it (map fabric). I thought of you when I saw it.
